New Balance Numeric 574 Vulc "Faded Black" UN574VGT

The New Balance Numeric 574 Vulc “Faded Black” blends skate function with a silhouette that sneaker fans already trust. This pair takes clear inspiration from the classic New Balance 574 running shoe and reworks it for life on a board. The result feels familiar, practical, and easy to style.

The shape is clean and low. Nothing bulky. Nothing forced. That faded black colourway keeps things understated, which makes this an easy daily option whether you skate or just like skate-influenced trainers. It pairs well with loose denim, cargos, or workwear fits. Simple choices. Strong results.

Up top, the upper is built with skating in mind. High abrasion areas are reinforced to handle repeated wear, flicks, and rough ground. This matters if you skate often, especially on UK streets that are far from smooth. The materials feel supportive without being stiff, giving you comfort straight out of the box.

Underfoot is where the 574 Vulc really earns respect. The vulcanised rubber outsole delivers excellent board feel. You stay close to the deck, which helps with control and consistency. Grip feels reliable. Flex feels natural. It’s the kind of sole that skaters appreciate after long sessions.
