When Boston College and New Balance sealed their groundbreaking 10-year alliance in 2021, few could fathom the fusion of sports tradition and sneaker culture that would emerge. The streets of Newton, Massachusetts have since been awash with New Balance‘s presence. But this fall promises an unprecedented surge of school spirit, as students, athletes, and fervent fans all prepare to flaunt the latest jewel: the New Balance 550 boasting the Boston College emblem.
This Basketball Oxford doesn’t just embrace Boston College’s identity; it personifies it. By intertwining the school’s emblematic red and gold hues, it vividly brings forth the vibrant campus life of the private institution. The immaculate white canvas from toe to heel forms the perfect foundation, making the crimson red accents pop, especially on the 550 branding, the sole unit stitching, and the unmistakable “N” emblem, which is delicately outlined in a gold foil trim. The subtle grayscale tones adding contrast along the suede and mesh heel counter provide a touch of sophistication, seamlessly harmonizing with the gentle shade gracing the shoe’s tread.
It isn’t just a shoe; it’s a statement. A declaration of pride, loyalty, and unity for Boston College. Those eager to elevate their sneaker game can look forward to the New Balance 550 “Boston College” edition (Style Code: BB550BC). With a price tag of $120, it is an investment in style and sentiment.
