The New Balance 574 is one of the most famous silhouettes from the house of New Balance. After more than thirty years, this now gets a contemporary update in the form of the New Balance 57/40. New Balance continues to express its heritage with the 57/40 - but in a new guise. Borrowing from '80s and '90s sneaker design, like the large N logo on the side, the 57/40 is the most extroverted member of the 574 family.The mesh upper of the New Balance M57/40 is layered with suede and leather panels and sits on a sole unit that could also be from the 90s.
