The best New Balance shoe of all time says it all, doesn’t it? Well, not really. The 574 might be our most unlikely icon. The 574 was built to be a reliable shoe that excels at many different things, rather than as a platform for revolutionary technologies or as a showcase for high-quality materials. This humble, unpretentious versatility is exactly what has catapulted the 574 into the ranks of the greats. As a hybrid street/trail design that builds on a wider last than the narrow racing silhouettes of the previous generation, the 574 offered a uniquely versatile blend of new, different, straightforward, robust, durable, and comfortable that has been embraced worldwide. That’s why the 574 is now synonymous with New Balance's limitless style and is worn by everyone. The 574 Hook & Loop for kids brings the same style inspiration down to growing feet.
