    In launching BB9000, New Balance envisioned creating a “retro-to-future” crossover designed to blend elements from the brand’s performance models with premium materials found in its top lifestyle shoes.

    The original New Balance 480 and 550 models serve as the inspiration for the retro look and help tell the story of New Balance history in the basketball category.

    The shoes’ midsole and outsole feature the same FuelCell technology of top New Balance performance basketball shoes such as the OMN1S, TWO WXY and the KAWHI, but the BB9000 is meant more as a lifestyle shoe than a basketball sneaker.

    Wearers will find elements of classic New Balance branding pulled from the 1300 and 574 lifestyle silhouettes.
