New Balance MTG580 “Outdoor Jacket”

New Balance MTG580 Outdoor JacketTaking the original MT580, which originated in Japan, Boston based New Balance, has remixed it into a new series called the New Balance MTG580 “Outdoor Jacket”collection.

The inspiration for the three colorways of these MTG580’s came from outdoor jackets. Come January, you’ll have the choice of purple, teal or yellow. You’ll also have the choice of regular laces or bungee style laces like you would find in an outdoor jacket, they’ll even throw in the plastic lace locks, so you won’t even have to tie your shoe. Made of water resistant Gore-tex uppers, they’ll keep your feet dryer than the typical running shoe, perfect for the rainy season.

  4. 1. these shoes are great.

    2. “Japanese footwear giant New Balance,”?? I’m sorry but isn’t NB based in Boston? Unless that was a joke of some sorts.

  8. myk dawg, the MTG580 was exclusive to japan for a while, it just recently came over to america. That is why it is a ‘japanese footwear giant’. I do really like these shoes, but gore-tex creases soooo awkwardly and is really hard to clean.

  13. I’m with Window - gusseted tongues or not? If not, it’s kind of a waste ’cause these are otherwise awesome.
