The most New Balance shoe ever says it all, right? No, actually. The 574 might be our unlikeliest icon. Built to be a reliable shoe that could do a lot of different things well rather than as a platform for revolutionary technology, this unassuming, unpretentious versatility is exactly what launched the 574 into the ranks of all-time greats. A hybrid road/trail design built on a wider last than previous narrow racing silhouettes, the 574 offers a uniquely versatile mix of new, different, uncomplicated, rugged, durable, and comfortable. Adopted as a closet staple across the globe, the 574 is synonymous with boundary-defying New Balance style—worn by anyone, anywhere.
