no explaining this one. the beige color way with that pop of blue looks dope. they remind me of the first airmax crepe with the hemp sides. would look really good with worn in jeans. can see the old folks thing cause you know they are NB. . .but i'm closer to the old folks then the young whipper snappers

did you went for these mickey?
just came across these on norsestore.com:
M577NG
and according to Lando´s post from a few months ago, they actually should be ~58$…hence the 577 in the name. could this be true?
@LandoCal126:Little NB factoid for everyone who was not aware: The model number of each NB corresponds to the price of retail. 1500 = $150.00, 574 = $57.40 or $58, etc.

A friend asked me to find a ton Made in USA products for a possible store he might be opening. These were the only sneakers that I could think of. Anyways, I actually tried on a few pairs yesterday and really liked them. I'm usually a Vans guy in the summer but I might add some of these in. Which pairs should be my first? I'm not into any of the loud colorways though… more into the classic ones. I'm a sz9 but possible 8.5 if they're wide. I'm gonna go to the New Balance store in the city to get properly fit since they do make wide sizes.

574 is prob the most common and inexpensive model. I am not a fan of them style wise, but they are comfortable.

finn the price tag vs number was correct when they were original released back in the 80s and even then only for some models, the 577 are normally around 100 Euro or 70 GBP depending where you buy them.
urb check the NB USA site you can get custom made 574s from http://www.shopnewbalance.com/us574

Thanks guys, really like the custom options. Might get a USA inspired pair even though it's loud.

I went to the New Balance store in the city the other day. Had them size me. I'm a 9D in the few pairs I tried on(can't remember which ones). I tried on the 8.5D and it was too tight, 9.5D wasn't too bad just a bit long.
8.5E in Alden Indy TruBalance -US
9E in most Red Wings -US
8.5E in Viberg(can fit 9D) -UK?
8.5D in White's Semi-Dress -US
