"   Photo: New Balance  On Friday, New Balance is launching a microsite that allows you to design your own sneakers. You&amp;#039;ll start with the 574 silhouette, the same classic that J.Crew started carrying last year, but you&amp;#039;ll make them look as crazy, or as classic, as you like. This isn&amp;#039;t just a pick a color kind of thing\u2014on the site you&amp;#039;ll be guided through each step starting with the sole, each part of the body and then the laces, the `N&amp;#039; logo and even the color in which &amp;quot;new balance&amp;quot; is stitched on the heel. From there you can embroider the back of each heel with any phrase or word. Regardless of what you design, the custom sneakers cost just a little over $100. At last night&amp;#039;s launch we previewed the site. It&amp;#039;s easy to use, technology wise, but hard to choose from all the options. And given the lines snaking around the room we weren&amp;#039;t the only ones having trouble picking embroidery colors. If you do see a red pair embroidered &amp;quot;Britt&amp;#039;s Kicks&amp;quot; running down the west side highway\u2014say hi! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
