New Balance collaborates with Tokyo Design Studio to produce these navy 574 trainers, which resemble formal dress shoes through the double-stitched edge construction. They’re crafted from plush suede and breathable mesh to a rounded toe, then are set on a ridged Vibram rubber outsole for a hard-wearing finish.
A classic on the sportswear scene that started out selling arch supports to police officers and waiters in the early 1900s, New Balance has re-emerged as a fashion must-have in recent years and, with stylish collaborations from J.Crew to Stone Island, the iconic sneakers are going nowhere.
