OU576GT
One of New Balance’s most recognisable styles and saviour of the Made in UK banner in the 1990s— the 576 is an archival trail runner turned lifestyle icon. More commonly seen with a C-CAP sole unit, for its 35th anniversary we’re treated to the original ENCAP tooling and a full re-work of the silhouette.
The uppers are cut from premium nubuck and assembled in New Balance’s famed Cumbrian factory in Wales. This version’s unique finish is reminiscent of some limited edition version released into the Japanese market in the 1990s, fetching sky-high prices if you’re ever lucky to even spot a pair.
