The New Balance NB Numeric 574 Vulc in Dark Arctic Grey and Infield Clay is a skate shoe that combines classic New Balance aesthetics with skateboarding functionality. This model takes inspiration from the iconic 574 sneaker, known for its versatile design and comfortable fit, and re-engineers it for the demanding needs of skateboarders. The upper features a mix of durable suede and breathable mesh in a sleek dark arctic grey colorway, complemented by infield clay accents that give the shoe a unique and stylish look. These materials not only provide a timeless appearance but also offer the robustness needed to withstand the rigors of skateboarding.
Functionally, the NB Numeric 574 Vulc excels due to its thoughtfully engineered design elements. The shoe incorporates a vulcanized sole that enhances board feel and flexibility, crucial for skaters who require precise control and responsiveness. Additionally, the reinforced toe cap and padded collar offer extra protection and support where it’s needed most, ensuring the shoe stands up to repeated wear and tear. The EVA insole adds a layer of cushioning, absorbing impact and reducing foot fatigue during long sessions at the skate park. Together, these features make the New Balance NB Numeric 574 Vulc a well-rounded choice for those who appreciate both style and performance in their skate footwear.
