News — 574

Tapping its Japan-based collective once again - New Balance unveils its latest capsule by NB Tokyo Design Studio. Utilizing retro and modern aesthetics, the 2 shoes featured in this Summer 2021 Collection offer premium constructions and fresh designs. The Boston-based brand's Tokyo Design Studio draws inspiration from street & menswear fashion as well as technology in their latest creations.

Working atop one of NB's most iconic silhouettes, the 574, TDS gives it a dressy makeover layering luxurious smooth leather and pigskin suede overtop the classic mesh panels. A striking 'Classic Burgundy' contrast can be seen at the heel of the 574 while the often seen 'N' side logo's are remove subtly. Giving the 574 its dressed up look are a welted midsole (cushioned inside with EVA foam), and treaded VIBRAM outsole providing elevated style and usable traction.

Offering a completely different scope from the 574TDU, Tokyo Design Studio unveils its Niobem Concept 2, a technology-based 'sneaker-meets-sandal' silhouette. Covering most of the shoes upper is a breathable mesh material, that is matched by tonal suede overlays, as well as an 'Indigo' blue midsole. Showing off its high-tech features, the Niobem Concept 2 is seen tooled with a VIBRAM outsole for traction and grip on uneven surfaces. Finishing off the sneaker-sandal is an all-new buckle fastening system in place of a traditional lacing.

ENTER LAUNCH

New Balance, long standing 'Grey Day' celebrates its iconic monochromatic palette, and the annual festivities continue this Summer with the introduction of 2 new silhouettes. This 2021 'Grey Day' sees the introduction of the 'Un-N-Ding' deconstructed 574, as well as a greyscale 57/40 coinciding with the recent launch of the new sneaker.

Simple for everyday wear, the 574 model partakes in the celebration constructed primarily in suede and overlayed with mesh materials that sport a shimmering golden finish. Removal of the classic 'N' logo on the outside wall is balanced by the addition of an embroidered 'New Balance' logo on the inside suede wall of the sneaker. Other details include vintage off-white hits on the midsole, heel wrap, and laces, as well as gold highlights on the heel tab and tongue tag.

Complimenting the retro 574 is its modern new relative - the 57/40, also seen here in its 'Grey Day' motif. Utilizing a blend of different shades atop the upper, the 'Grey Day' 57/40 sees light, medium, and dark greys, contrasted by white on the lacing, tongue tag, and oversized 'N' logo, as well as a perfectly tooled off-white midsole.
