Festive New Year-Themed Footwear

New Balance Unveils a 550 Lunar New Year Collection

New Balance unveils its new Lunar New Year collection that celebrates the upcoming festive time. The capsule is made up of the 550 sneaker model and it is made from a blend of leather and suede materials throughout the upper.

There are two 550s -- both of which are made in a neutral tone starting with a nude palette and another is an off-white with red accents. Following this are three versions of the 2002$ sneakers, which have casual tones starting with a grey and followed by a chocolate brown. The third deconstructed look is similar to that of its Protection Pack in a purple look before the collection is rounded out by a nude and red 574 shoe and a grey 9060 sneaker.
