New Balance 530 “Steel Grey” (MR530KA)
Grijs hoeft niet saai te zijn. De 530 zet een basis van steel grey neer en breekt die open met wit, zilver en een vleugje marineblauw, terwijl subtiele bruintinten rond de hiel zorgen voor een warm, bijna elegant contrast. Precies dat samenspel zet deze variant (MR530KA) apart: rustig genoeg voor elke dag, met net genoeg diepte om niet in de massa te verdwijnen. De opbouw van suède en mesh maakt het compleet — de mesh houdt je voet koel en ademend, de suède geeft zachte, premium textuur en dat beetje karakter dat kunststof mist. Synthetische overlays houden alles strak op zijn plek.
Onder je voet werkt de ABZORB-demping: die vangt de klap van elke stap op, zodat lange dagen op de been comfortabel blijven. De gesegmenteerde tussenzool volgt je afwikkeling soepel mee. Combineer 'm met een rechte jeans en een grijze knit, en het grafische reliëf van de zool doet de rest.

Price distribution New Balance 530
We compare this sneaker's price with the 134 other adult versions of the New Balance 530 that we track. At a lowest price of $106 this colorway is pricier than 51% of those 134 versions. The group median sits at $106, with resale outliers up to $272. The chart shows exactly where this sneaker falls — the black marker — among all the others.
We always compare the lowest price a colorway is currently on sale for somewhere: the cheapest entry point, usually for one specific size. The comparison stays within the same age group, because a kids size (TD/PS/GS) is priced differently than an adult size. Because the price varies per size, your size may come out a little higher. To keep the comparison fair we leave out the most and least expensive two percent — the resale outliers, and the price axis is logarithmic so both the cheap and the pricey end stay readable. We refresh the numbers several times a day; last update 11 Sep 2026.
Hypescore × price
Hype doesn't have to be expensive. Each dot is a New Balance 530 colorway (of the 134 with a Hypescore): the further right, the more hype, and the higher a dot sits, the cheaper the sneaker. This sneaker is the photo with the red ring (Hypescore 51). Below the RRP they're called meltdowns: top-left the quiet price meltdowns (cheap, but little attention yet), top-right the radiating meltdowns — lots of hype and well below retail, the hottest deals. Above the RRP sit the grails: bottom-right the radiating grails (loved and pricey), and bottom-left the potential grails — pricey with little hype. That can simply be too expensive, but it's often where fresh drops and collabs appear that are too new to have gathered grail votes; their hype still has to build.
