2010 New Balance 576 Heritage Line Fall/Winter Review

Italian sneaker store Shoelosophy presents a special pack of New Balance 576 running sneakers. Entirely produced in the New Balance Flimby factory, the 576 Heritage Line consists of two sneakers coming in dark yellow and khaki colorways, featuring a unique vintage look on the upper.




When many people go shopping for a new pair of sneakers, they sometimes don't take into consideration whether or not they need running shoes or walking shoes. If you don't run on a weekly basis as part of your exercise routine, then you should make sure you find a pair of good walking shoe...such as the New Balance 576. The reason one should choose the right shoe is because walking and running shoes have very different qualities about them.

Qualities of a Good Walking Shoe

Walking shoes, such as the ones featured in this New Balance 576 review, are designed specifically for people who walk the majority of the time. While you walk, the pressure your feet endure from your body weight is applied to different areas than when you run. This is why you need walking shoes for walking and running shoes for running.

Good walking shoes have specific qualities. First, a good walking shoe will allow more flexibility at the ball of the foot. This is because when you walk, your weight "rolls" to the ball of your foot. Secondly, the arch support should be noticeable...not uncomfortable, but you should know that it's there. When you walk, the majority of your weight goes across the arch of your foot. Therefore, you need more support from your walking shoe at the arch.

Finally, the walking shoes you select should be comfortable beginning at the time you put them on in the store. You need to make sure they fit correctly...they need to be snug on your foot so that you aren't likely to slip out of them or trip accidentally.

The New Balance 576 shoes are a popular choice for male walkers for a variety of reasons including durability, comfort and support. In fact, there are many men that have come back to purchase a 2nd or 3rd pair of these shoes once they wear out the other pair(s).

Finally, New Balance shoes are made by an outstanding company that is dedicated to providing the highest quality of shoes, both walking and running, to consumers every day. Additionally, all of the companies shoes are made right here in the USA. Therefore, when you purchase a pair of these shoes, you'll be supporting your fellow Americans.

Great Prices

New Balance offers two designs of hiking boots for both men and women. Women's shoes are a little bit lighter, but have the same features as the men's boots. Both are moderately priced at around $150 for the 1500 model, and between $90 and $120 for the 1200 model, depending on where you shop. The prices are comparable to other hiking shoes, but the quality and features can't be matched by their competitors. For younger hiking enthusiasts, New Balance also offers kids' boots, running about $60 for a pair with similar features to the adult models.

New Balance has been putting out a quality product for quite a number of years and as is the case with everything else continues to experiment and modify the construction and styling of many of it's running shoes.

Some of the modifications concerning the various new balance models have met with mixed reviews with some individuals praising the design while others have had not so good experiences.

If you're a serious runner who is considering the New Balance brand or someone who has been an avid user of this product in the past, there are three things you should consider when making your decision to pick up a pair of New Balance running shoes.

1. Comfort

It's only natural that comfort would be at the top of the list. After all what could be more challenging than enduring a 15 or 20 mile run in a pair of shoes that are killing you? Look for shoes that will allow you to get through a training session or event without the threat of shin splints or the development of plantar fasciitis.

2. Stability

It's safe to say that not all runners are alike and finding the right running shoe means identifying quality footwear that will provide the stability to meet your needs as a runner. Some runners tend to wear out the outer heel, while others need more room in the toe box area to maintain solid footing during exercise.

3. Wear

When you consider the cost of footwear for the serious runner nowadays, it's safe to say you don't want to be spending money on new shoes every three or four months. Many new balance users have had positive experiences when it comes to the durability of their NB running shoes.

As mentioned earlier New Balance has been manufacturing a top quality product for a very long time and many serious runners wouldn't run in anything but a pair of new balance running shoes.

If you are in the market for a mens running shoe that will provide the durability, comfort and stability you need to endure long runs without pain than you may be interested in getting information about the New Balance MR993 running shoe.








New Balance MT580

For the first time New Balance worked with a US boutique on a collaboration on the MT580 sneaker. Burn Rubber was given the chance to give the running shoe its own distinct look.

“Historically the New Balance MT580 is a shoe released out of Asia with various collaborators. This marks the first time that the shoe has been collaborated on and brought through by the New Balance America team.

In business since 2004 Burn Rubber is Metro Detroit’s first premium sneaker boutique. The Burn Rubber name is a play on a phrase from the Motor City’s car culture. The name came from the comparison of the use of sneakers on a person to the use of tires on a car. Burn Rubber is known throughout their community as the place to get hard to find, limited edition sneakers and clothing.

Burn Rubber made the shoe their own by applying a shop colored theme and utilizing materials in unique ways. The custom designed argyle pattern that lines the inside of the shoe was created to incorporate all of the company’s branded colors. A reflective 3M material, originally developed to reflect light for night running, was also used throughout the mostly gray shoe to give the design another dimension. The majority of the shoe design is comprised of New Balance’s premium nubuck and gray mesh, and completed with a touch of patent leather and a classic gum sole.

As one of the most recognizable aspects of the Burn Rubber brand they have chosen to include the shop’s mascot on the hangtag provided with each shoe. The Chef, originally created to be “just another T-Shirt design”, ended up taking on a life of its own. The photo shoot for this project was done from the perspective of a chef and was intended to bring light to the story of Burn Rubber’s popular logo & style.”

The Burn Rubber MT580 will be available on November 26th at www.burnrubberdetroit.com and at Burn Rubber’s Royal Oak Location (202 W Fourth Street, Royal Oak, MI 48067).
