You might of seen my review of the Nike Free Run 5.0 earlier, on the same trip to Dalton Outlet Park, I also visited the New Balance Outlet Store, and picked up these New Balance 577's for a steal of £50 with the RRP being £85.
Sizing - 9/10
Once again these kicks run slightly small and I had to get the UK7.5 rather than my usual UK7, however this being said New Balance are well known to run slightly small (being a running shoe) so I can't say this is a problem.
Comfort - 9/10
New Balance are renowned for the comfort of their brand, and the 577 model is no different, with an excellently soft tongue with is so soft on the upper foot. The Encap mid-sole only adds to the comfort with it's amazing stability.
Styling - 10/10
Personally I believe the 577 is one of New Balance's finest classic model, with a smaller toe box than the standard 574 meaning a sleaker look is given to the shoe. Another feature of the 577 which I love is the mid-panel intersections featuring sometimes 3, but 2 in this case, different colours.
Colour-Way 7/10
The colour-way of this particular kick is a New Balance classic of Navy/Grey, its simplicity means this shoe will compliment almost any outfit. However it does mean that it's a bit boring and doesn't stand out as many 577 colour-ways such as the bright red.
Final Verdict
Overall the comfort and styling much outweigh any issues with boring colour-way (which of course isn't on every 577), so I believe this shoe definitely deserves what I'm going to score it:
