For spring/summer ’16, New Balance started flexing their muscles for the year ahead and dropped two premium Made in England New Balance 576’s, which feature full nubuck uppers, debossed with a subtle reptile skin design.

Made at the Flimby factory in Cumbria, England, both pairs come with tonal wax laces, a tonal nubuck embroidered branded heel tab and one piece “N”, with the uppers being sat upon the traditional C-Cap midsole and tonal heel counter.

The New Balance 576NRG in it’s grey colourway is the perfect colourway right now for us due to the winter months and that shocking Scottish weather, but we can’t wait to get the off-white pair of New Balance 576NRW on-foot as soon as it clears up a bit!

Big thanks to New Balance for looking out!

Let’s take a look at both pairs in a little more detail, first up, the New Balance 576NRW (available to buy at HANON):
