The New York-based fashion label announced on Instagram that two collaborative New Balance P550 Basketball Oxford styles are releasing next week. The announcement included a closer look at the latest offerings, with both pairs featuring premium white leather uppers that are differentiated by contrasting green and yellow or navy blue and red accents covering the “N” logo on the sides, the collar and the tongue. The look continues with the midsoles of both pairs wearing a sail color scheme, giving them a vintage-inspired look, while the corresponding accents cover the outsoles.
