126 of 155 New Balance pairs sell under retail, led by a $41 550

The biggest move this week: the 530 “Polka Dots” fell 44% to $38 in a size 9. Every size of the 990v6 “Salmon” is under retail.

550 “Warm Sand”, 990v6 “Salmon”, 550 “Lakers Pack - Infinity Blue” and 650R “White” sneakers

126 of the 155 most-listed men's New Balance pairs I check sell under retail in at least one size from 8 to 12. The deepest cut against retail is the Aimé Leon Dore x 550 “Warm Sand”: $41 in a size 9, $89 under its $130 retail.

Here are the eight biggest discounts, cheapest pair first in each line. Most of them didn't move this week, so this is a steady picture rather than a flash sale.

The list

My take

If you wear a 9, this is a good week: four of these eight pairs are cheapest in your size. If you wear a 10, the Aimé Leon Dore 650R at $58 and the “Warm Sand” at $45 are the ones I'd look at first.

The rest of the brand, and every other pair priced below retail, is on everything under retail.
