The New Balance 471 sneaker, first debuting at the ‘24 Olympics, merges '70s running heritage with everyday wearability. Drawing inspiration from iconic archival models that revolutionized road running, this sneaker features hairy suede overlays and woven mesh, connecting to the design elements of that era. It has suede uppers, an EVA midsole, and a rubber outsole. This model combines trail shoe inspiration with everyday comfort and a versatile gray color that works well with both urban outfits and outdoor activities. The design is based on archival trail models but has been adapted to the modern needs of urban lifestyle users. The upper is constructed from a combination of mesh and synthetic panels, providing breathability and durability. The lateral "N" logo underscores the sporty heritage and adds a classic NB touch. The outsole is designed with traction in mind – an aggressive, trail-inspired tread allows for confident movement on both asphalt and more varied terrain. An EVA midsole provides adequate cushioning and all-day comfort.
