Our take on the 530

The New Balance 530 is a retro running sneaker revived from the early 2000s, built with a mesh and synthetic upper and an ABZORB foam midsole for cushioning. It sits among New Balance's heritage runners as a lighter, more breathable everyday shoe than the chunky 9060 or the sportier 2002R. Owners like it as a comfortable, easy-to-wear sneaker with a clean Y2K look; the main complaints are that the mesh upper is thin and the outsole grip is modest in wet conditions.

Questions and answers

Is the New Balance 530 good for running?
It is a lifestyle shoe, not a performance runner. The ABZORB midsole is comfortable for walking and everyday wear, but it lacks the support and outsole design of a dedicated running shoe.
How does the 530 compare with the New Balance 2002R?
The 530 is lighter and more breathable, with a simpler mesh upper. The 2002R has more structure, a plusher ride and a higher-end build.
Does the New Balance 530 fit true to size?
Most buyers take their usual New Balance size. Some with wider feet go up half a size because the upper has little stretch.
What is the upper made of?
A mix of mesh and synthetic overlays, with an adjustable lace-up closure.
Is the 530 good for wide feet?
The mesh upper is fairly accommodating, but the shoe comes in standard widths. Shoppers who need a wide fit should look at New Balance models offered in wide sizes.
Where is the 530 cheapest?
At Stadium Goods, for $103.00, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the 530?
Rated 5 out of 5 from 1 ratings.
