There is a reason the 574 remains a permanent fixture on the streets of London. It is the definition of an unpretentious classic. This Nimbus Cloud colourway delivers a clean, neutral palette of soft off-white suede and crisp white mesh that goes with literally everything in your wardrobe. The feel is exactly what you want from an everyday runner. You get that reliable ENCAP midsole cushioning underfoot, combining lightweight foam with a tough polyurethane rim that keeps you comfortable during long weekend walks or daily commutes. It feels solid but cushioned, avoiding that overly squishy feeling of some modern tech runners. New Balance has built these with a nod to the future, incorporating recycled polyester into the mesh tongue, collar, and vamp, alongside a portion of bio-based materials in the foam. It is a smart, responsible update to a silhouette that has not needed to change its iconic shape since the eighties.
