New Balance H574J


Although the New Balance H574J might not play to legions of dedicated New Balance fans for its hybrid construction, nevertheless the H574J has seemed to receive a bigger push in recent memory from the British running brand. The jogger turned hiker silhouette features two colorways which we feel is very much suited to the Japanese market with its unorthodox color tones. Look for these to release in early September at atmos. Get your Outback Steakhouse Coupons here.

New Balance 575 Rawhide


Sometimes it’s hard to find a pair of good shoes that isn’t too loud or too plain, but New Balance’s 575 Rawhide seems to be right in the middle. Rather than using bright colors, this pair comes in all black with a glimpse of white, truly focusing on the use of different materials with suede tip, fur sides, and leather accents. Stay tuned for release date and availability.

New Balance MT580 Gore-Tex CYMK Pack Samples


Here is a preview of the upcoming New Balance MT580 “CYMK” Pack. While we assume this pack is called the “CYMK” pack, we can only see three colorways in this picture - cyan, yellow and magenta. Even though you probably won’t be splashing these sneakers in the rain, the upper is partially composed of Gore-Tex material which might be helpful when you’re wearing these at a party and someone splashes drinks on your sneakers. No release dates have been released but look for these hot MT580’s to drop soon.

Staple Design x New Balance 575 “Pigeon”


“How many kids know of the Pigeon Dunk but have never actually seen them with their own two eyes?…”
-jeffstaple

The almost mythical pigeon derived from the minds over at Staple Design is set for a comeback, three years after its Nike SB Dunk Low’s release sparked wide-spread chaos and panic amidst the streets of New York. This time around, jeffstaple and crew look to New Balance’s trail runner the 575 as the cornerstone of their latest sneaker inspiration. In an in-depth interview with Sneaker Freaker, some pressing issues are featured including what reactions are expected out of the Nike camp as well as jeffstaple’s reasoning behind reliving some a historic shoe which he mentions changed the face of the sneaker world. For the shoe itself, the color placement is actually quite similar to the original SB Dunk including the pigeon-foot orange seen on the lining and sole. Also seen is a new embroidery on the heel featuring a flying pigeon to go alongside the original standing pigeon. Following up on Staple Design’s recent involvement with Lomo, a Pigeon-colored Lomo camera will also release. Singapore has already announced an August 6th release at Leftfoot Singapore and Le Vault.
