Some shoes are recognizable as soon as you lay eyes on them. That’s certainly the case with the New Balance 574. A lot of careful engineering went into the New Balance 574's design. The idea, back in the 1980s, was to create a well-priced running shoe that didn’t skimp on technology. With the New Balance 576 inspiring the upper and the sole inspired by the 577, a legend was born. Tested by casual joggers, weekend warriors, and marathoners alike, these running shoes deliver remarkable support. Plus of course, they look fresh, too.

The 574s are all about comfort. There’s a footbed made of ENCAP cushioning. That’s made from a polyurethane shell and a super comfortable EVA middle. It cushions the foot with every step.
There are so many thoughtful details on these shoes. There’s a toe-cap that protects against scrapes, keeping these shoes in your rotation for years. The collar and tongue are padded for extra comfort and support. And the rubber outsole has a great tread pattern for long-lasting traction.
These aren’t just about comfort, though. The combo leather, suede, and mesh upper gives off an iconic look. And there are tons of colorways to choose from, including dashing Team Red and Pigment, sleek Black and Yellow, and standout Navy and Orange. You’ll never have to sacrifice style for function with the 574s.
You should also take a look at the New Balance 574 Classic. These bring all the same technical aspects with a few tweaks to the design. You’ll notice additional New Balance logos on the tongue and the heel. On each lateral and medial side, there’s that iconic die-cut “N” logo. And on some styles, there’s reflective detailing.
These shoes have stood the test of time for a reason. When you're pounding the pavement, the New Balance 574 has you covered on comfort and style.
