Our Take
The New Balance 574 has defied trends and outlasted fads since 1988. Originally an all-terrain running shoe, it's become one of the most recognized sneakers in the world — embraced by everyone from hip-hop artists to fashion editors.
The ENCAP midsole technology combines lightweight foam with a durable polyurethane rim for excellent cushioning and stability. The suede and mesh upper provides a premium look and feel with excellent breathability.
Available in a huge range of colors, the 574 pairs effortlessly with jeans, chinos, shorts, and everything in between. The classic silhouette is neither too bulky nor too slim — it's the Goldilocks of sneakers.
