New Balance MT580 Grey
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Aug 19, 2008 The New Balance MT580 was first created as a trail shoe exclusively for Japanese footwear chain Mita (which is where the shoe receives its MT prefix from) in the 90s. The shoe was quickly adopted by many and was the canvas for many collaborations between artists and stores in Japan including Stussy, realmad HECTIC, and UNDFTD.
For many years the shoes were that “green grass” that few in the US would be able to obtain, even if they had the money for the shoes. Finally after all the years of waiting, the New Balance MT580 has “Come To America.” This pair of the MT580 is dressed in tonal greys making use of predominantly cool grey upper with accents of charcoal grey. This colorway is available now online at Zappos for $90. And you know the good part of Zappos, no tax, no shipping fees Info from Daily Drop. |

$90?! damn, thats a hell of a deal for those kicks. I paid $200 for some worn MT580s a year or two ago.

simple, clean, very nice….anyone know the significance of the #580?

love the grey nubuck…and 580 i believe is just the model name/number. NB usually just goes with a number. 574, 576, 808, etc…

New Balance and their numbers are confusing honestly. I work with some ppl there who have a hell of a time remembering all of them.
What gets confusing is that they have started adding letters before and after the number making the shoe something totally different.
For example, there is a New Balance 580, but it is totally different from the MT580.

Ian,
Life is rough with a sz 14 foot lol. As much as New Balance is known for having all shapes and sizes, I think that 13 is the largest.
At least with Zappos, if they dont fit they have free return shipping, so nothing lost other than hope

Good call on that…I forgot that, they’ll pay shipping both ways if needed. Good looking out…
