Few sneaker models have made such a big impact in such a short time, not only on the world of footwear but also on fashion as a whole. The basketball silhouette of the New Balance 550 is one of the reasons why New Balance is currently enjoying its best years. They first came out back in 1989, when they became a favourite in between the baskets mainly thanks to their great cushioning features, the benefits of which you'll appreciate even in everyday wear. But the 2022 collaboration with Aimé Leon Dore kicked off a fever that has left the New Balance 550 sneaker as one of the world's most wanted models, and one that is always quick to disappear from the store shelves.

One of the coolest sneaker cult-brands ever, for which retro models there are people willing to camp outside stores. The brand was founded in 1905 and began to manufacture sneakers that were originally designed to improve shoe fit - a special design with three support points to provide greater balance and comfort in the shoe. Their model Tracster, from 1960, was the first professional running shoe and the model W320 was a running shoe designed especially for women only.
