New Balance's Most Iconic '574' Silhouette Reimagined And Redesigned "Now For Skateboarding" (Video)
The 574 is the most iconic sneaker in New Balance’s storied history and they've recently updated the silhouette with skateboarders in mind.
This little edit they made is clever and actually super rad. Blending both worlds, we can sort of see the evolution happening before our eyes in a few short seconds.
This slightly tweaked, reimagined version of the 574 features a vulcanized construction with vaulted heel design that flexes on impact. Form and function.
"We’ve reinforced the toe with rubber for durability and added a PU lasting board that sits underneath a molded Ortholite insert for additional step in comfort and support," says New Balance.
And for the sneaker nerds out there, let me save you a click—here are a few more key product details via the New Balance site:
Suede/synthetic/mesh upper
Vulcanized outsole
Reinforced in the high abrasion areas to withstand the rigors of skateboarding
Modeled after the classic New Balance 574
Adjustable lace closure for a customized fit
Look for them at your local shop or lurk the NB# website for more. The team at New Balance, both internally and externally, continue to do big things in the skate world. Their squad is stacked, their shoes are highly desired and I'd say they're still just getting started.
