When it comes to a comfy pair of trainers to wear all day long, then New Balance has earned a high reputation among shoppers.
Out of all the brand’s designs, it is the 550 shoes that have become the most beloved. Famed for their chunky low-to design, they have become a fashion icon that have been praised as “supportive” and “comfortable.”
It’s not just us that think so, as these shoes have been spotted on everyone from Margot Robbie to Taylor Swift. In fact, the latter sent fans into overdrive after sporting the red and white colourway of the “timeless classic” to her first Kansas City Chief’s game.
While Swift’s exact colourway are out of stock, there are many other options on the market. Even better, the 550 New Balance Trainers are up to 50 percent off in the sportswear company’s Black Friday sale that is available to shop online.
If you don’t want to sift through the entire sale, then one such pair with great reviews is the Sea Salt with Linen and Stoneware pair. Originally priced at £120, they have now been dropped to just £84 – saving £36 off the RRP.
The 550’s boast a streamlined silhouette and dependable leather upper construction that make them both “super comfy” and “fashionable” to wear with many outfits. This particular colourway is available in sizes three through to 8.5.
Shoppers have provided the New Balance trainers with an average 4.1 rating, with many praising their comfort for all day wear, as they say they “didn’t have to break them in” and can wear them for “hours”.
One delighted customer said: “Super comfy and fashionable shoe. Didn’t have to break them in at all. Wore them to a concert and stood for hours. Fit true to size.”
A second shopper praised: “They are so comfy didn’t have any problems getting used to them at all.”
Another fan gushed: “So comfortable!! They are true to size! They do not make your feet hurt at all!! They don’t crease and very easy to clean!”
Someone else added: “They’re very comfortable, didn’t have to break them in.”
