The New Balance 471 sneaker, first debuted at the ‘24 Olympics, merges '70s running heritage with everyday wearability. It draws inspiration from iconic archival models that revolutionized road running. Research into vintage elements and NB's heritage models, materials, colors, details, and trims of the era resulted in this brand-new sneaker, featuring hairy suede overlays and woven mesh for a connection to that period of design. It has suede uppers, an EVA midsole, and a rubber outsole. Product Code: U471AH. This low-profile silhouette features a mesh upper with hairy suede overlays to create an already worn-in look. Packed full of retro appeal, the 471 draws inspiration from 70s heritage running designs. Reimagining their running style from the 70s, the 471 from New Balance blends vintage style with contemporary construction.
