The original 580 was popular because of its good looks, historic because it introduced the concept of collaborations, and legendary because it was nearly impossible to obtain a pair outside of Japan. In fact, unless you were plugged into the early days of internet sneaker culture, you probably wouldn't have known the shoe existed at all. Stray Rats, a brand with lifelong connections to different subcultures, offer their own take on the iconic 580. Upper construction featuring nubuck and glossy nylon is outfitted in a blend of vibrant fluorescent shades and muted earth tones, inspired by the aesthetic conventions of 2007, the year the 580 debuted stateside. The unique color combinations pay tribute to the era of digital camera photos of sneaker collections, uploaded to message boards and forums, by evoking rare colorways set against home interior backgrounds.

I love my New Balance Stray Rats. The colors are different and they are made well.

I love these shoes and have been added to my collection. I will never sell them, they go with so many fits and the quality is top tier unlike some other companies where the leather is cheap and the stitching is already unraveling.

Need more cushioning. Maybe you can point me to your shoes that have more cushioning.The looks are fine. But you can't enjoy much about the looks. I'm looking more on comfort and quality.Thanks!

Out of the 12 pair of new balance that I own these are my new favorite. You get the classic new balance comfort with a New funky color way
Very comfortable, with a beautiful design@ i put them on once and now putting away for a few years. Just to rock them again once everybody forgot about them
These shoe has become my daily wear and I love the shoe. It's comfortable and stylish to fit my style of dressing.
These are dope .. Finally got to get a Stray Rats Collab .. fits true to size .. people barely stating to get on the NB wave ...
The design, style, and color are all amazing. Add in the fit and comfort of the 580 and you can't go wrong!
Always top notch quality from New Balance stylish comfortable and long lasting
I'm here for this shoe. 580 collabs have been crushing it between the palace ones and this. Got both, love both. It's the colorway and the comfort for me.Hope yall keep it up with these materials and unique colorways.
