Named after the sneaker's designer, the New Balance Mt580 'Takashi Numazawa' running shoe is doused in black suede and features perforations to promote airflow. A padded tongue and collar resist abrasion and stay true to the New Balance commitment to comfort while branding details hit the tongue, heel and sidewall. Designed for versatile wear, the sneaker flaunts an Abzorb midfoot to stand tough against impact and an internal roll bar to prevent pronation.
