Today I'm taking a look at the New Balance MT580OG2, the first colorway of the re-release of the MT 580 model. I used to have one a couple of years back and wanted to get one for my collection again. Here are a couple of reasons why to get them, and reasons not to get it.

i was on the fence about a pair had them in cart and wondered about sizing and general review and sure enough you got a video on them! 🤟🏻 always enjoy your content and have based sizing (with a grain of salt) on yours because i’m a 13 in nike and Asics and has always worked out. Thanks i pulled the trigger on a pit after this video! take care!

I'm glad I was able to help and I hope they'll fit. But we seem to have similar sizing so I think you'll be good

They look really nice, for me the craftsmanship and quality wasn't bad but not outstanding. I might be a bit picky and snob because i really like the made models. I feel you on the 999 made in the us, had some opportunities to cop them but never did, now they are gone forever😢.

@oliverjones6687 Жыл бұрын

They’re a classic for sure and that bulky toebox isn’t as noticeable on-feet. Looking forward to ‘grey day’ with reintroduction of the 998 😍

@loganjbaez Жыл бұрын

i like this silhouette and i don't know why i didn't buy them about a decade ago as well but i did get the 999 concept collaboration. they are bulky too . thanks for that information cause they don't run to size i have to take insole out and use the runners lock at the top eyelid . ive seen few colorways ive wanted i need to get a pair and get them on sale too. i remember the stray rats dropped and i kept going back to the website thinking to cop. that white and green pair yes another pair i thought of copping. great pickup and review brother ✊️🙏

You should probably be good with your BB550 sizing. I also liked those colorful ones that Chintweezy posted

I like them - they remind me of Huarche's but more boxy like you say. I'm just about to pull the trigger on a pair of these so the review was perfect timing for me. 👍🏽

Excellent review, I never had a pair of 580 and I am a New Balance Fan. I trust your opinion on these. After all it was your review on the Saucony Shadow 5000’s that made me a Saucony fan. It’s true, we do have to many shoes 👟

@HighlyAkicktive Жыл бұрын

I've become very selective because I have way more than I'll ever need 😅. Saucony is definitely an underrated brand. 5000s and 6000s are my favorites!

Great video! Suggestion? Please wear pants that aren't elasticated when you show sneakers on feet. Maybe just regular midrise pants with no break. Starting point of styling any type of footwear, imo. Just for the videos, not suggesting you change your style of pants. I hope this helps, and you'll take it well. Peace.

What’s a good classic runner that is good for winter and bad weather I was looking at the tailwind 4 ACG what are your opinions

@HighlyAkicktive 9 ай бұрын

Anything ACG may work, but I never had one and don't know how weatherproof they are. You can also look into Asics' GTX line, or Hoka One, both have GTX (Gore-Tex) Versions. I have an Asics GTX and it's awesome. New Balance also has a GTX version of the 2002R. If it doesn't have to be a runner Nike Duck Boot or Vans MTE

This is probably one of the biggest reasons why I bought NB 580 due to its thick sole. I'm like 5''7 and half and I always look for shoes with relatively thick sole. Beside NB 327, there aren't many NB with thick soles. So please don't look at it as some kinda down fall. Not every man is like 6'' esp among Asian guys.

Let's understand why it's a bulky shoe, it's for over-pronators in running, it's a running shoe, for bigger guys, so it's not going to be a slim shoe.
