I also are getting some New Balance in the mail. They should be here on Saturday. One thing I can tell you that they are not 574s. You're going to have to wait and see which ones they are

Didn't bite on the 574s I didn't like the colour when I got to the store. Hunting out for some 577s now instead!

Wow! 577s?!?! You shouldn't have a problem finding those since they are made in England (and that is your location). They are nice though. What color are you planing to get?

One of these colours..





The problem is with New Balance is I have difficulty finding the right size. For example the first pair I ever got a few years back were 373s size 9.5 perfect fit. I got 577s in the past size 10 - they were too tight. I got 574 also in size 10 - too tight. So I have to get size 10.5 for the larger NB designs it seems.

The current pair of 574s I have are size 10, so I had to take the insole out! I am going to try and find a really thin insole to use with them to help with the tightness.

I really like that grey colorway

I think the problem is it all depends on where the shoes are made. If they are made in China or Vietnam then they usually run small. If they are made the US or UK then they usually run true to size. I wear a size 9 in New Balance and had no problems with the sizing. And I have atleast 4 different models (574, 999, 530 and 850).

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold the bus! Is that a reissue of a classic sneaker or the actual sneaker?

I don't know. That's why I asked the OP. Would you rather I assumed?

Nah those are not the OG sneakers. They were re-released a few months ago. I wish I had the originals but might be impossible to find now. When Reebok decided to re-release them I had to get them for my collection
