These Black Friday New Balances are literally built like tanks

Here at The Manual, we love to hear the words “limited edition” because it almost always implies premium materials and construction, and when it comes to sneakers, it usually means a special design you won’t find on a normal pair of shoes. These New Balance US574s are handmade right here in America, and you’ll only find them for sale in shops in Boston and New York. If you’re in one of those two cities and like a fresh pair of sneakers, you should make it a point to grab a pair.

It gets rainy and snowy in the Northeast this time of year, so New Balance made sure you would be ready to hit the streets no matter the weather. Military green suede with weatherproofing is a nod to the durable vehicles the military uses, with a white reflective ‘N’ logo gracing the sides for an added pop.

The shoes are only available in limited quantity from New Balance Boston and New Balance New York, and only as part of the Mobilize Your Winter package. This special bundle includes an awesome Titan water bottle, a special pair of Varsity socks, and a custom messenger bag, and of course the sneakers.

There aren’t many pairs to go around, but if you’re in New York or Boston you should hike over to your local New Balance shop to grab one. If you get it, post a picture to Instagram with #MobilizeYourWinter and tag us @TheManual so we can see them on foot.

While recent New Balance sneakers have been full of color and design, the brand isn’t letting go of their more minimalist hues yet. Just in time for a fresh new season, the athletic brand is releasing a brand new ‘MADE in USA’ sneaker that’s clean and simple. While New Balance has recently released a flurry of designs under the ‘MADE in USA’ umbrella, the brand continues to dole out the new hues. Donning a much subdued colorway, this new sneaker is made for those yearning for a more classic and low-key sneaker. Although many recent trends have called for statement and attention-grabbing color palettes and prints, the New Balance sneaker is the epitome of a traditional white sneaker. Whether it’s the performance features or simplicity that calls your attention, there’s nothing more essential than a white sneaker.

With the spring season in full bloom, New Balance is again delivering a seasonally appropriate footwear option. Donning a green-hued colorway, the latest New Balance sneaker is the ultimate way to bring your sneaker collection to life this season. While this colorful shoe contrasts drastically with the brand’s moodier and neutral releases, it doesn’t lack New Balance’s renowned footwear technology. As part of the Teddy Santis-led ‘MADE in USA’ line, this sneaker is a step above the brand’s traditional offerings. Like the MADE in UK branch, the MADE in USA branch comprises some of the brand’s most premium designs. Although Santis has announced nine new styles for the upcoming Spring/Summer 2025 season, this new release is another welcome addition to the lineup.
