Inspired by the iconic 574 silhouette, New Balance creates the M57/40 trainers. An upgrade to the original style, the low-top design is crafted with contrasting panels of suede and mesh, stacked atop a contrasting rubber sole, and finished with the iconic ‘N’ at the sides. Oh, and if you check the inside of the tongue to note what sort of choice you’d be making when donning these kicks – that’s right, an intelligent one.
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.
