Customer Reviews New Balance Classics M574

These are great, I've been rocking them for about a year. They don't have the color I bought anymore, but they look awesome. I'm back to possibly by another pair, so that tells you how good they are.

Got this shoe because I heard excellent review from my brother. Super comfortable, fits great. Blah Blah Blah. The biggest things I noticed was that the actual "footprint" of the shoe was quite wide, closer to the width of a boot than sneaker, I've typically worn Vans. Also, the sole is much thicker, especially in the heel. Just walking and wearing them around, not a big deal, but they did take some getting used to for driving. I drive a manual transmission and it took some time getting comfortable driving in them. I actually have to move my seat back a "click" when I wear these. Also have to work on placement, so I don't graze the next pedal. These aren't negatives, just what I noticed. Driving an auto trans, probably wouldn't even notice a difference.

This is a great sneaker! Bought it as replacement to my NB 903s which they don't make anymore. Bought the Grey 2 colored pair and absolutely love the color! It's like a brownish-grey that matches anything I wear. Grabbed them on sale at a great price. I have wide feet so I bought them EE and a 1/2 size up and they fit great! Highly recommended sneaker for low-top NB fans!

The New Balance 574 has been my favorite shoe for all occassions for several years. I can't wait to get a new pair and feel the fantastic degree of comfort. I get a new pair about avery year, and put close to 1,000 walking miles on them a year, so the soles are pretty worn, but the fabric, stitching and foam material are still in very good condition. Zappos has proben to be quite a value and has a phenomenol selection. I will be placing my annual purchase sometime this week, plenty of colors to make a selection.

Got the all black for work at a restaurant. Couldn't be happier. Size 14 was true to size.

This shoe is second to none in my book. I bought a pair from the mall back in 05 and haven't looked back. I just ordered my 6th pair today. I have a wide FLAT foot and these shoes are nothing short of perfect in comfort, style, and size. Great for walking, great for a meet and greet at the bar, driving, you name it the shoe comes through. So do yourself a favor, if you've wide flat feet and want some shoes that look and perform amazing, get yourself a pair of 574's from New Balance!

Great shoe. I got these for my boyfriend and he walks a lot and had no foot problems! I've owned some before and love them!

New Balance always makes a good quality product. This was my first Zappos order and the website, follow ups, and delivery were excellent. I will use Zappos again.

While you may not run a marathon in these, they serve their purpose as a great all around pair of sneakers. I have work 574's for years, and the new colorways keep the style fresh, and allow me to never get bored of them. Sneaker is comfortable, sizing runs a bit small...half a size. Support is okay, and they are pretty light. I have the grey/orange/light blue version now, and they go great with khakis and jeans.

Quick shipping. Returned first pair because they were a bit large, no questions asked. Second pair fit fine and very comfortable.

Very comfortable and gray color is much nicer than the classic 574 gray, which is more of a rock/dirt color these days.

These shoes are great. My husband has a large wide foot and hates shopping. this is the fourth pair of shoes I have purchased for him and Zappos has never never disappointed us. Thanks Zappos!

Bought these for my son. He used them for middle school track. He said that they fit well. My son has large feet, and I was glad to be able to find these shoes in his size.

Have been wearing 574s on and off for 10 years; they're perfect everyday sneakers, good for walking or the gym. Only complain with the all-black colorway is that the "N" on the side and the rear heel upper are shiny, not matte like the rest of the shoe. But that's a minor aesthetic quibble. Great value, and importantly available in wide sizes.

Excellent comfort, relatively light weight, and they look great. I would say this runs about 1 sizes small, even against other New Balance shoes.

Love the shoes, exactly what I wanted and they fit great. Had to return the second pair As I got them a bit small. I have to say it was the pair I had to return that will make me a loyal customer. You were great with the return and you made it so easy for me! I truly appreciate that. You give great service, and delivery. Thank you.

These are nice looking shoes. I have a wide foot and always need a D or E.. these were only available in EE.. So i took a chance, but these were still too narrow.. These shoes run on the narrow side.I never owned a NB show before, Unfortunately these have to be returned.

The good: I walk around NYC a lot but recently just got back from a trip at Disney World. I must have walked ENDLESSLY. for the exception of the last cpl hours of the last day (I stayed a week) my feet were comfortable, no pain; not tired..in fact, how my feet were feeling so great they were not even on my mind. by the 5th day of constant walking I said out loud "my feet feel great, these shoes are awesome!" the meh: I'm not a fan of the tread. even when first previewing the shoe, I was comprehensive because there's a lack. the shoes tend to slide and slip pending the kind of surface when it's raining or if it's wet. it took a couple days to adjust my step so I could walk without incident. Even then, I'd love a redesign on the tread. overall: tread missteps aside, it's a solid shoe. feels great, is very comfortable and would definitely order a new pair when needed

Great looking shoe! Both comfy and stylish. In my opinion, they run just a little bit small. I have a pair of m990 Classics in the same size and they fit perfect. These 574's are little tighter in length, but should be fine once broken in.

Very comfortable shoes. Good arch support. Color and size were both true. I wear arch support orthotics...slipped them right into the shoe and still comfortable.

Classic retro styling. Very comfortable. Length runs half to full size shorter than your normal shoe size.

Zappos is absolutely the best online shopping that you can find anywhere. The product was exactly as described and the shipping is super fast. By the time you click place order your product has arrived. These New Balance classic 574 are comfortable and very durable I use them for everyday use at work and I work in a warehouse atmosphere so that should tell you a lot. Thanks Zappos.

I mean these are great. If you know you like New Balances, these are more of the same -- some fine kicks. If you don't, but think you might, give 'em a try. I've been wearing these every day: comfy, lots of compliments, awesome sneaks.
