This video compares what I consider to be the essential New Balance silhouette that is available in 3 models. What is the difference between the New Balance 373, 574 and 996?? Watch the video and find out my take. Let me know what you think in the comments
This is such a great watch!
I've been on the search for great or steal deals over the past 2 weeks for some models that I really wanted to cop and I learned that these three are not just the ones sharing similar silhouettes.
I'm relatively new to NBs so for over the 2 weeks that I've spent, I have observed other silhouettes that are "similar" to these 3 such as the 500, 576, 577, 578, 730, 990v1, and 1300.
I can see both subtle and major differences across all the silhouettes but as you've said, to the untrained eyes, they can absolutely look the same.
Thank you for watching! NB do this a lot but the subtle differences also kinda have a big impact which makes it so hard to decide!
I have 373 and 574.. The 373 is by far the most comfortable sneaker I have experienced in my entire life(33yr)and they are great summer snekaers cause they are light,thin and breathable..574 feel higher quality,tougher and also warmer..574 are just average comfortable sneaker but much warmer so they are good for spring and autumn..none are good for true winter tho, unless youre always indoor
couldn't agree less with you on 373 comfort..I got 15-20 sneakers at home and I wear none of them since I bought 373..I guess comfort is very subjective
Thank you for the review, while I find the opinion on the upper somewhat adequte, although comparing mesh to suede is not fair since they are for different applications, the massive amounts of cushioning is not always great. 574 and 996 will have an increase stack height and heel-to-toe drop which makes them uncomfortable for people looking for a less intrusive shoe in that sense. After trying all of them I chose the 373 for lighter weight, lower stack height that doesn't force you forward in a rocking motion (and lets you stand without overcompensating in your posture) and less of a heel that makes me feel more stable. Also there is more space in the toebox because of less of material and they're generally more flexible.
These massive amounts of cushioning are also not too good for your tendons and muscles, although they do lower the impact if you're a heel-striker, which is wrong anyway...
Thank you for watching!
great analysis sir! thanks for the comparison :)
Thank you!!
Thx dude. You made a video what i want 👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
A great comprehensive review, exactly the type of video i was after!
THANK YOU!!!!!
I had those, I put my old Skechers insole in it and that’s how I wore it. Love the style, but only for the look.
How about comparing the 574, 576, and 990v1? 😊
I was thinking of getting new shoe's but i didn't know which ones, i watch Initial D and characters have New Balance which made me want some, i wanted 574 but they're weren't any my size so i had to choose the 373, is not bad when i tried them and it fits with my Cargo pants really well, for 320 RON, what a bargain.
I'm also initial D fan, I had 574 for a year but they are now damaged by using. I just bought 373 now and i can say they are more flexibile and lighier than 574, so they are more comfortable for driving a car, because you have better feeling in feet when pressing clutch or gas. I wonder how long they last.
@@rewanker7336 thanks for telling me these pros, can't wait to get my license anytime.
Great video thank you sir
996s are the best New Balance ever
I think they are a nice shoe too - super underrated
Does the number automatically correlates to a better shoe? Because I just bought the 237V1 and they appear great in terms of sole. I've had plenty of New Balance shoes in the past and the 574 is basically standard and will make everyone happy. The 373 is narrow and feels cheaper that's true. The best one I ever had was a Made in England one and it literally felt like walking on pillows. Too bad they ended up a bit too short...
The number in this range tends to indicate better tech or material as it gets higher
Yeah the 574 and 996 are great in Australia, IF you have feet as wide as a 12 year old.
Can you wear 373 for sports?
574 FTW! Always end up buying a new pair of these
Hard to go past the 574!
Also the Saucony jazz
I like the 574 sneaker
Do the 373's wear true to size?? I found one for a great price, but it's one size down from my usual size, so im afraid it will be too tight and unwearable.. someone please help me with this!
This is probably too late, but I found that 373's feel tight, almost like half a size down compared to my 997 USA.
You’re correct, I’ve tried 373 and it’s 0.5 size smaller than my 996
NB really need to expand from the runner
G'day sport.... I've just picked up some Grey 373's on offer in Tenerife for €55, it might feel light-weight but I've made my own Max1's and they are sooo heavy in full leather
They are light but not such a bad think, especially if you dont want a heavy shoe!
@@3kicksaday Send me your email and I'll show you the hand made kicks I made in Holand dude
How much height do the 996s add? Thanks :)
not much - quite low to ground - maybe an inch or so. Definitely more than the 373 though!!
@@3kicksaday same height as 574?
are the NB 574 that are Made in USA or Made in UK ?? Thanks.
The ones in this video are the regular 574 (v1)
All new balance are made in China
@@omertaomertaomerta7626 No, quite a lot of the more expensive models are made in USA and the others in places like Taiwan
We have a factory here in Brazil, but I think it is just for the brazilian market@@omertaomertaomerta7626
I would go to 996 made in USA. Comfort and material wise, it is more durable than 574.
I don't think so 🧐 574 is more durable than 996
574 for the win 🏆
373 is inferior than regular 574 thats is inferior than 996 with Encap. But regular 574 is superior than regular 996 (without Encap)
574 are my favourite from this bunch but the 996 are pretty close too!
Agree with 574...373 is not good for long hours of wearing it....the 996 looks like a "gay" 574😂
Yeah, I got some 373 and after some hours of walking or sitting down, my feet start to hurt, I'll get 574 when I'll grow up.
