These are the New Balance 471s that sold out immediately at United Arrows. They are very light and extremely comfortable to wear. I used them for commuting for a week (including one rainy day). Please check the photos. The laces have been replaced, but I will send them as they are. The original laces in the first photo are not included, as I purchased them online domestically. Rest assured, these are authentic, purchased from the United Arrows online store.
