New Balance 5740 Trainers

The New Balance 57/40 is an updated version of the classic 574, and these trainers get their sleek silhouette from a mix of a slimmer last and exaggerated features. The upper is a combination of suede and mesh. The midsole has ‘90s tech inspired details, while the mudguard and eyerow feature the distinctive wavy embellishments of the ‘80s.

• Upper: Leather 63%, Polyester 37%

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.
