It has been a couple of years since Pantone announced Rose Quartz and Serenity as the chosen pair as its Colour of the Year in 2016. However, the love for pastel has not died down and brands are still churning out designs in muted tones, like New Balance.
The sports brand is releasing its women’s Classic 574 silhouette in 5 fresh and vibrant pastel shades – Clear Blue, Daybreak, Faded Rose, Seafoam and White.
Top to bottom: Daybreak, Faded Rose, White, Clear Blue, Seafoam, $119 each
The shoes come complete with suede uppers and vintage-inspired mesh for a play in texture. As per all New Balance shoes, these shoes are branded with their model numbers on the tongue – Classic 574.
If you love all things glitter like Too Faced’s Life’s a Festival glitter-tastic collection, New Balance has released limited edition New Balance 574 Glitter Punk that is sure to make your dreams come true. This range comes in 3 statement-making colours, featuring a synthetic leather upper that is accented with a metallic ‘N’ logo and a matching Achilles collar. If that’s not enough shimmer for you, the shoes also come with a glimmering ribbed heel stabiliser to add the final touch of glitter.
These shoes are the perfect day-to-night kicks and with comfortable midsole support, we’re definitely going to be dancing in these shoes, all night long.

Although these lifestyle shoes are exceptionally attractive, what’s a sports brand without sports shoes? New Balance has released a new range of running shoes that are meant to give utmost comfort and support for athletes. Named Fresh Foam LAZR, the whole range was engineered to give athletes an edge on the track and uses cutting edge technology for the perfect silhouette. Most of use aren’t athletes that run competitively but we can’t say no to shoes that are exceptionally comfortable. If they make exercising that bit less painless, then we think they’re all worth it, if you asked us.
The name comes from the makeup of the shoe – the midsoles are made of Fresh Foam that have deep flex grooves that were engraved with a laser and the shoes feature an upper made of HypoSkin technology that supports your foot through movement in all directions, moulding the shoe to your movements. The soles aren’t your average soles as well, resembling reptilian scales for flexible movement of the foot.
Fresh Foam LAZR HypoSkin in Black, $159
The Fresh Foam LAZR HypoSkin line comes in 4 shades. 3 of them are fairly dark-toned with white trimmings while the purple one has a pop of colour with bright red soles.

The Fresh Foam LAZR range also features a limited edition collection: Fresh Foam LAZR Elite. It comes equipped with the same HypoSkin technology but in a streamlined silhouette and full black or white for a more sleek look.

Whether it’s just for lifestyle or sports, we’re definitely looking forward to all of New Balance’s drops this month! Maybe we’ll be able to get back on track with our New Year’s exercise resolution with a new pair of running shoes as our source of motivation.
