For a shoe that can handle your child's busy days, pick up the New Balance 574 kids' sneaker. The durable construction is ideal for active kids as it was designed to stand up to general wear-and-tear and daily play. The upper offers a lightweight feel for a more comfortable fit while the durable rubber outsole provides traction on indoor and outdoor surfaces including school hallways, the playground and everywhere in between. These kids' sneakers also include lightweight EVA foam cushioning in the midsole and heel to increase comfort. The lace-up closure lets little kids practice the challenge of tying their shoes, and helps boost confidence in more independent children. Inspired by New Balance heritage designs and finished with an adult-style sneaker silhouette, these kids' shoes add style and confidence to help kiddos take on their day. For a look the entire family can rock together, check out the men's and women's versions of these 574s. New Balance, is dedicated to helping athletes achieve their goals. It's been their mission for more than a century. It's why they don't spend money on celebrity endorsements. They spend it on research and development. It's why they don't design products to fit an image. They design them to fit. New Balance is driven to make the finest shoes for the same reason athletes lace them up: to achieve the very best.
