The best New Balance shoe of all time – that says it all, right? Well, not really. The 574 is perhaps our most unconventional icon. The 574 was designed as a reliable shoe that excels at many different things, not as a platform for revolutionary technologies or as a showcase for high-quality materials. It's precisely this humble, unpretentious versatility that has catapulted the 574 into the ranks of the greats. As a hybrid road-trail construction built on a wider last than the narrow racing silhouettes of the previous generation, the 574 offers a uniquely versatile mix of new, different, straightforward, robust, durable, and comfortable design that has made its way into closets around the world. Today, the 574 is synonymous with the revolutionary style of New Balance that is wearable by everyone.
