“The New Balance shoe of all time” says it all, doesn’t it? Not really. The 574 might be our most unlikely icon. The 574 was designed to be a reliable shoe that does lots of different things well, rather than a platform for revolutionary technology or a showcase for premium materials. This understated, unpretentious versatility put the 574 right up there with the all-time greats. A hybrid road/trail design built on a wider last than the narrow racing silhouettes of the previous generation, the 574 offered a uniquely versatile blend of new, different, straightforward, tough, durable and comfortable that was adopted as a wardrobe staple around the world. Because of this, the 574 is now synonymous with New Balance’s limitless style and is worn by everyone.
