Originally released in 1982, the T500 was designed to bring superior quality to a versatile on-court style. While the reintroduced T500 is designed more for leisure than competition, everything that made the T500 a great tennis shoe then, makes it a timeless classic now. The upper features pigskin suede and nubuck construction and perforated toebox detailing, for a premium take on the familiar look. A polyurethane midsole offers an understated hint of 1980s tech, that stands out from the vulcanized soles of older court models. | View the curated selection of established brands, emerging designers, sportswear & goods.

Very stylish and versatile. Great suede material and high quality. The sole isn't rock hard either like some other shoes in this style - it is actually supportive and well cushioned. Only issue is that I own New Balance 997s and 990v5s in size 11 and they fit great, but I found the T500 in size 11 to be too big. I would recommend ordering a half size below your usual size. Still 5 stars.

Good looks and well made. The shoes run narrow, especially in the toe box. I also find them generally uncomfortable - but not unwearable. I was hoping I could use these as city cruisers and put a lot of miles on them but I’ll need to use them only when not walking or standing for too long.

The shoes looks great on foot but the insole is to thick. The top of my toes are smashed against the toe box. Remove the insole and they fit loose. Loved them but had to return.

I love these shoes. I have a hard time figuring out my NB size and it was no different with these but all good now. These are one of the most comfortable run-around sneakers I have. Great support too.
Stylish but the design of the shoe lace holes could be improved for a better and snugger fit. Everyone I walk, the back part of my foot loses contact with the shoe.
Better than expected comfort, quality is really nice for a $110 shoe.Nice materials and breathable, pretty low profile. Perfect shoe for the spring/summer!
These are very comfortable and I’ve gotten used to wearing maximalist shoes lately. I love the look and colors. My husband and I both have them.
Super clean color way and silhouette! Love the clean look of the shoe and very comfortable. The inside of the shoe feels very soft, they would probably feel good wearing no-show socks or even no socks altogether, although I still rock these with ankle socks. Definitely love to have these in my spring and summer sneaker rotation!
Very comfortable and versatile to style. Only con is I had to return and order a different size as the sizing is not compatible to the 9060’s. I called New Balance and asked about measurements and Rep. had no information and suggested I order the same size as my 9069’s but that didn’t work out.
I like these shoes OK but with bunions and a hammertoe, I really need the mesh rather than leather top like the 847s I have had previously…service was good but not stock…didn’t have the similar shoe in my size that would have been better for exercising. Consider bringing back the 847s with a mesh top.
