DESCRIPTIONS
The New Balance 57/40 is the answer to a question that is simple,yet astronomical in scale.What if we updated the most New Balance shoe of all time – the 574? Despite its legacy of unassuming,almost effortless versatility,the original 574 was a unique design for its era,a hybrid road/trail design that didn’t lean on visible technical features.The 57/40 approaches the hybrid concept with a few extra years’ worth of design developments to explore,and creates a new perspective on an iconic design.An overall sleeker silhouette provided by a slimmer last combines with a range of exaggerated features.The unique midsole combines a flared take on the classic 574 construction with ‘90s tech inspired details,while the mudguard and eyerow feature the distinctive wavy embellishments of the ‘80s.This infants' version of the 57/40,the 57/40 Bungee,pares down the classic model for growing feet.
