I'm loving Nb too. But alot of the collabs or just special ones are retailing at 220-230$ the joe fresh goods, the 990v6 silver blue that looks like the yeezy inertia colorway. But yea im here for them too. I'm 42 by the way, lol
@gablin706 ...u have to keep an eye on them, bcuz eventually they will go on sale and come down in price ... I own a few NB collabs and got them for half price
Bought my 580 last Christmas in a Footlocker branch in South Korea. I had to choose between the 580 and the Nike Air Huarache. And I tell you it was a tough decision. But I'm glad I chose the 580. Inside the shoe on the tag it says "THE INTELLIGENT CHOICE". 👍😊
The 580 and 999s have always been two of my favorite silhouettes from NB. They were basically not made, at least very rarely for a few years and hard to find here in Europe. Nowadays there are great color ways on sale everywhere and I’m ecstatic about it. And with the huge popularity of 2002r, 1906, etc I’m just pumped that we get more than just my beloved 574s and extremely expensive 990s.
I've been wearing the 580 for over 10 years. I've always thought this was a slept on model. The 580 has nice colorways, and the shoe is comfortable, and durable. Some pairs have really nice suede. Never understood why these have been slept on.
Have to visit one of their stores, went to LA a couple years back and had to stop at its location, it was literally underground. It felt so exclusive with security everywhere. Loved it, plus the ice cream 👌
Most of my sneakers are NBs, but this is my first ever 580 silhouette/model. Once I saw Kith had the collab, I jumped on them. Didn't get them for retail unfortunately. But the materials and the color looked so dope, I was willing to pay resale for them. Still waiting for them to arrive, but reviews like this make me happy that I was not the only one to see how nice they are. Great review!
The New Balance retail store is where I figured out my shoe size. I know other stores do it but they have a machine that provides details on foot shape, etc, which would be helpful if you're not sure of your size. As far as the QOTD, I hate paper cuts (especially from boxes 😣) but a stubbed toe is a different kind of struggle when you're on your feet all day for work.
I always been rocking NB's 574 since the 90's. Crazy colorways. 801 All Terrains were dope! A couple years ago found 580 GORETEX at a Ross for $30!!!! NB has got to be a staple in the shoe rotation!
Thank you for covering one of my favorite NB sneakers! The color blocking and materials are top-notch! As someone who has big and wide feet, these sneakers are comfortable right out of the box. Great video! Thank you.
Great video! I bought some 999’s 5 years ago and became a huge fan of NB. I have 4 different silhouettes in my rotation and I’m gonna check out the 580.
I’ve been looking at these too, we don’t have them in my city so I definitely appreciate your reviews! 580 80’s are usually quality, people just overlook them
QOTD: Paper cut. Especially from a cardboard box. I commented on the last New Balance review (1090r) that I'm from DC, so New Balance is not a secret to me. They've always had great materials and quality. Their recent colorways (and especially collabs) are showing a ton of creativity and willingness to push their brand beyond grey 99Xs and J. Crew 574 colors. It's much appreciated. Speaking of much appreciated, thanks for the review! You got my like up there, and here's my comment right here.
Great video, I own Nike, Jordans, Adidas, Puma, and others, but my favorite shoes, as far as comfort, have gotta be my New Balance pairs. From 990's, 2002R's,9060's, 57/40's, all of them are mad comfortable! I've seen 580's but haven't tried a pair yet. That is going to change soon. Thanks for another dope video from Weartesters!
I have the Comme Des Garçons 580 in grey/black bought on sale (140€) and their materials are top notch. One of the most underrated models with an excepcional aesthetic
Well that's another shoe I'm buying because of you lol. I always reference your videos before I buy anything I can't try on. I'm a wide footer and your sizing assessment have been pretty accurate with my foot.
Great review. Really enjoy having this sneaker. there's one caveat for me though. the sock liner in the product photos looks like a deep purple. But they're actually a grayish blue.... nonetheless comfortable and Premium
Damn, these look soooo good. The keep releasing so many good 574 and 580 colourways. There's a set of 574s made with cordura and all of the colours are amazing. Stubbed toes are the worst, I've broken toes numerous times because people leave shit sticking out.
I usually don’t mess with NB because they don’t do size 12.5 in many models so good to know down half a size is an option here. QotD: I gotta go with stubbing a toe. My feet often ache as is so anything that adds to that or makes it worse is brutal.
As a kid who always had an "allowance" in sneakers, I had to learn the hard way with my first few personal purchases that are 1 size up in my performance shoes😅 6:47
I always bought everything but Newbalance for years. But the last few years I got into them and it is CRAZY how good their materials are. The quality and materials are second to none. Why the hell are they able to care about what people buy and put on their feet. The other brands only do it if it's a collab or possibly a premium version. Even with some of the premium versions of Nikes or Jordan's they aren't even consistent. Sad. And they wonder why their quarterly earnings are not up there. I just want to know if I spend $90 on a shoe I get a $90 shoe. If I spend $250 on a shoe I don't want to get a $90 shoe. You picking up what I'm putting down? Wear testers...... GOAT 🐐 for reviews !! Keep doing it and I'll keep watching !!!! Don't ever think your content is not appreciated.
1: Awesome review as always. 2: Pulling a hangnail is a choice! 3: I have, on separate occasions, turned a toe black for 4 days, and blown a toenail off. 4: STOP SAYING PAPER CUT!!!
I finally pulled the trigger on these! I’ve been eyeing on this forever but the price to me is too high. And two days ago my wife and I were in the mall and we saw the ADB midnight grey colorway with 40% off. The next thing I remembered is holding the bag with these in it. Love the quality. Thx for the review.
Try the Diadora v7000 x Footpatrol "Macchiato". Made in Italy and with suede that's truly top notch. Remarkably high quality. And in case you wonder, you can remove the paint at the back of the midsole with aceton. I did that because I preferred a completely white midsole. Was released like 5 years ago, and nowadays the resell prices are like the release price.
Struck out on these as always, but stoked that NB is getting some play on the channel - while Nike's quality is going down and prices are up, New Balance stays consistent. Grown man shoes
I'm bummed with NB since where I'm located, stores only have until size US 12 (and that fits TOO tight on me weirdly enough, both lengthwise and widthwise). I'd love to cop a pair of different NB though sigh. Thanks for letting me watch something I'll never have locally Nightwing!
Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior tech/luxury improvements... What would that shoe be?
***Question of the day*** If you had the opportunity to travel and pick up regional exclusive sneakers, which country would you visit? Great to see more New Balance shoes getting reviewed. I do like the Reebok retro's you have been covering as well.
Thanks for reminding us of Jack*ss's papercuts, Chris! I was really happy I forgot about those papercuts! :/ I'd stub my toe instead of the other two, paper cuts are the worst. Like, they don't bleed enough to clot but they stay open and sting all the time.
I’d say my best quality sneaker purchase this year is the China’s exclusive Year of the Dragon Air Force 1. The material is top notch, probably the most well executed pair this year in my opinion. It’s more of a masterpiece than a footwear though.
The NBs i see in stores always have not the best looking toe boxes id say overly squared and that would bother me from the top down view😒 Sidenote - TMNT splintered fate for the switch releases tomorrow can't wait 😎
Very often experienced size topic with new balance. Go down half a size for premium retro and go through the aura or even up half a size for performance models. Tisza stability the only area where Nike still surpasses New Balance. For the rest, Nike continue to sink and New Balance continues its ascent to the top
I tend to stick with the 990v3's and 993's for comfort ( I go down a 1/2 size for these ). Anyone know if these are these just as comfortable? They look nice.
Hello there, ive visited NB webstore and im beginning to like their stuff so far but i found out there are also some UK and US made models for daily use and id like to know whats the deal with them , what is quality difference since these shoes costs like 240-250€ for pair. Thx for answer ;)
Do you know if reebok is going to do anymore colors of the pump tz....they have that aged look one in blue and I'd love to have that color, but I'm not paying 1200
watching this makes me want to get some NB 580 👀 also stubbing your toes, i recently found out that I stubbed my toe so bad that it was broken and only took me over 20 years to realize what had happen... 🤦♂
The older I get the more I really appreciate how simple NB is. Good quality and good products
And most are pretty well priced. A lot are sub $100 and their high end shoes are mostly sub $150
I'm loving Nb too. But alot of the collabs or just special ones are retailing at 220-230$ the joe fresh goods, the 990v6 silver blue that looks like the yeezy inertia colorway. But yea im here for them too. I'm 42 by the way, lol

I don't really like NB but the quality and comfort of their shoes are top tier
New balance is so hot rn
Great video! I bought some 999’s 5 years ago and became a huge fan of NB. I have 4 different silhouettes in my rotation and I’m gonna check out the 580.
Love to see the branch out and appreciation of NB by the channel! They’re just out here making comfortable, high(ish) quality shoes.
I got a pair of 580Rs last year, and love rocking them. The materials are on point, and they're comfy for daily wear.
I’ve been looking at these too, we don’t have them in my city so I definitely appreciate your reviews! 580 80’s are usually quality, people just overlook them
New Balance has definitely stepped up their game in recent years. Hopefully this trend continues

I wish you do more reviews on more nb model. Your reviews are very detailed and you explain well the history and tech of the shoe 🔥
Those are DOPE!!!
I’m a 580 fan they’re very comfortable, sometimes they color ways are ehh but when there’s a fire one grab them..!!!
These are dope. My favorite NB pickup of last year was the Ronnie Fieg x Frank Loyd Wright Foundation 998.
Best reviews on YT

I was wondering why does the name "Kith" sound familiar, then I saw a short with Mike Tyson, and I immediately remembered. IYKYK
bro don't make fun of lithp pleathe
@@Scuderia11052011 Bite me! Oh wai...
Agree with her, TTS in every single NB silo except Made in UK. Half size up on those almost universally. The lasts run thin.
Damn, these look soooo good. The keep releasing so many good 574 and 580 colourways.
There's a set of 574s made with cordura and all of the colours are amazing.

I love the 1300 from this drop. It is extremely comfortable and the quality is top notch. Vibram is great
These look kinda like Diadora N9002 that I own. Love the profile! And I love the stuff Kith puts out
1: Awesome review as always.
2: Pulling a hangnail is a choice!
3: I have, on separate occasions, turned a toe black for 4 days, and blown a toenail off.

NB and Asics is where it’s at right now
580's are awesome. Got 2 pairs in the rotation, they're so comfortable. 👌

I was at the Kith Tokyo store last month
Hell yeah. Got this pair as well from kith. I also picked up the rc 1300.
thank you Cris for the info, paper cut are terrible it heals so slow.
Big fan of the 580's I have a couple color ways and they are legit love this kith exclusive need a pair for sure
I had these years ago, must pick them up again
Struck out on these as always, but stoked that NB is getting some play on the channel - while Nike's quality is going down and prices are up, New Balance stays consistent. Grown man shoes
Finally my favorite NB model being featured here
I'm bummed with NB since where I'm located, stores only have until size US 12 (and that fits TOO tight on me weirdly enough, both lengthwise and widthwise). I'd love to cop a pair of different NB though sigh. Thanks for letting me watch something I'll never have locally Nightwing!
I was heavy on 580s like 10 years ago. I remember copping a pair for $50 off Karmaloop lol
You should check out Mizuno Sport Style options if you haven't already. Quality materials.
Welcome to NB!
pulling a hang nail is def the worst...
Great vid !
New Balance are great it's nice to see it become popular. 🙂
GREAT REVIEW as always
Keep going!!!
The 580 is my FAVORITE New Balance model.
Those look dope. Can y'all review the 808 4 ultras?
Leaving my question again, since it was ❤ed by you two... QUESTION: If you could have one shoe come back every 2-3 years with necessary interior tech/luxury improvements... What would that shoe be?

Great to see more New Balance shoes getting reviewed. I do like the Reebok retro's you have been covering as well.
Try looking at Diadora stuff. The Made In Italy line is gorgeous.
It’s crazy that all these new balances are retros that are really taking off now.
I have early access to almost every release so id be more happy to enter on models that you’d potentially want to review
Thanks for reminding us of Jack*ss's papercuts, Chris! I was really happy I forgot about those papercuts! :/
I'd stub my toe instead of the other two, paper cuts are the worst. Like, they don't bleed enough to clot but they stay open and sting all the time.
I’d say my best quality sneaker purchase this year is the China’s exclusive Year of the Dragon Air Force 1. The material is top notch, probably the most well executed pair this year in my opinion. It’s more of a masterpiece than a footwear though.
Paper cuts are by far the most diabolical.
Great review, as always. I kinda like this model
These were my first raffle win in a year and a half. Soo happy I got them, the quality and execution is top notch.
I've converted to NB back in 2016 and haven't looked back at Nike or Adidas.
Their Miami and Wakiki store are pretty cool but most store exclusive items are sold out when I visited.
I love these. They are so beautiful.
580 is not my cup of tea but I am loving the color way and the quality of this one. Might pull the trigger since it’s affordable
I’ve got them from footlocker on sale from 130$ to 60$ burgundy color😁🤩
NB Nightwing lately. I like it.
Door review as always! Ima go with a hangnail…those mugs hurt!
Love my pair. Good quality for 135 bucks
Brooo this are nice really nice they are fire 🔥
New balance 420 is my personal favorite
Beauty!
Love the reviews, but what happened to the podcast?
Are you doing a review on the Jordan 4 Paris?
What insoles do you recommend to replace the stock ones?
The NBs i see in stores always have not the best looking toe boxes id say overly squared and that would bother me from the top down view😒
Sidenote - TMNT splintered fate for the switch releases tomorrow can't wait 😎
LOVE me some new balance.
Great video
For the algo! Love these vids!!
These look really nice. Would cop for retail. Probably won’t since resell for my size is twice the retail price. 🤞🏾 for a manger resell price drop.

I retired my Js for 580s bruh. Super comfortable…I’m old
QOTD: paper cuts have that initial shock but the pain goes away. Stubbing a toe hurts so bad.
Love my 9060s 🥰
Papercut for sure! Upper looks great on these, but the midsole, mweh.
I tend to stick with the 990v3's and 993's for comfort ( I go down a 1/2 size for these ). Anyone know if these are these just as comfortable? They look nice.
QOTD: Who did a worse National Anthem performance: Fergie at the NBA All-Stars, or Ingrid Andress at the MLB All-Stars?

what size do you wear in Jordan 1 lows? just trying to sort my size for the 580's for ref.
ITME slowly branching out to Asics and new balance
another steven smith banger !!!
I love these models specifically, they remind me of the yeezy 500ish in a way
Do you know if reebok is going to do anymore colors of the pump tz....they have that aged look one in blue and I'd love to have that color, but I'm not paying 1200
The most comfortable shoe ever is the New Balance Fuel Cell Rebel V4
watching this makes me want to get some NB 580 👀
also stubbing your toes, i recently found out that I stubbed my toe so bad that it was broken and only took me over 20 years to realize what had happen... 🤦♂
😬
I always go up half a size in NB
