New Balance 475 "Dark Alpine Green" U475HC

The New Balance 475 “Dark Alpine Green” takes a classic silhouette from the archives and gives it a fresh place in modern rotations. Originally released in 1986, the 475 was built with runners in mind, offering reliable cushioning and support over daily miles. Fast forward to today, and the shoe returns with a balance of retro appeal and everyday practicality.

The upper combines breathable mesh with premium suede and leather overlays, staying true to the craftsmanship that made the model popular decades ago. This mix of textures not only looks sharp but also ensures durability for long-term wear. The earthy alpine green colourway gives it a bold yet versatile finish, enhanced by reflective accents that light up subtly at night.

Underfoot, the chunky outsole is inspired by trail running, delivering grip and stability beyond casual use. This rugged base adds character to the design while making it ready for more than just pavements. Whether worn for long days on foot or styled casually, the 475 keeps comfort at the centre of its build.

What makes this release stand out is the way it bridges past and present. The shoe honours its 80s performance roots but translates seamlessly into lifestyle wear. With its robust construction, striking colour scheme, and heritage background, the New Balance 475 “Dark Alpine Green” becomes more than just a retro revival—it’s a dependable everyday option with lasting appeal.
