Customer Reviews New Balance Classics M574

Great shoes. I normally wear 10.5 wide, and the 10 wide fit perfectly. Very comfortable and I like the style. Little to no break-in time.

Great shoe, but definitely sized very narrow! I went with the EE width and it's just comfortable there.

The best sneakers. Fit like a comfortable glove, and with a sole that's firm enough to keep rocks from poking up into the shoe.

Best. Shoes. Ever. My brother and I have both been wearing these shoes for over 5 years now. I just bought me a second pair. They are well built. Clean very easily, and even when they get a bit dirty they still look good (its the style). These are just casual shoes, not running.

Had to send these back. Even though I ordered them a whole size larger than usual, they were too tight in the big toe area.I think the toe box isn't deep enough.

It was exactly as I thought it would be. Usually colors are different online vs. actuality. These shoes came exact to what I thought they would be.

I recently bought some New Balance shoes for my son as a gift. The order came in fewer days than I had anticipated, was exactly what I had hoped for and they fit perfectly. Zappos has free returns which is great, although I did not have to use it.

Great shoes, I have been getting the same pair for years. They usually last 3-4 years before the tread wears off and they don't look as pretty, but still super comfortable. Matches most outfits, great everyday shoe. Also, is perfect for people like me with wide feet. Couldn't recommend it more.

These shoes are excellent. Very comfortable and sturdy. I wear them to work as a nurse and I'm on my feet 12 to 14 hours at a time and my feet don't bother me.

These are great sneakers! I have wide feet and NB always comes through with a great fit! Classic sneakers that will never go out of style. Breathable and light weight as well.

My previous New Balance Classics M574 shoes were, like these new ones, just what I wanted, but one of them separated along the front side of the sole after 15 months. I had previously owned a similar pair of these shoes purchased at a higher price elsewhere that lasted about 8 years, so I was disappointed. I contacted Zappos and they let me buy new shoes and pay only the difference in cost just this once, which I thought was great customer relations. So far the new shoes are great, just as the old ones were for the first 15 months. Hoping these will last longer, though.

I purchased the New Balance Classics 574 in the light blue for my son. He loved them! The fit was perfect and the color was exactly what I asked for! I was pleased with the fast free delivery! I will order again! If you're on the fence about an item, "Go for it." You won't be sorry! 5 Stars!

This is a simple fantastic shoe. I would prefer to wear a Saucony, Puma or Onitsuka Tiger, but I have giant size 16 feet. These are good and come in giant sizes.

Can I just say that I love the look and feel of the New Balance 574? A little retro with a lot of comfort! I don't plan to run much in these but feel like I could if I want to. Not the lightest shoe I have ever worn, but I love them already. I ordered my usual size (8 1/2 D) and they fit like a glove.

Went searching for the 574's and Zappos had a large selection of colors in this model. Great all around training walking shoe. These are my go to brand and model. I tend to be hard on them, but they last a long time.

Pleased with these shoes and thinking of getting a second pair. Purchased them in a wide width and they are appropriately roomy. They feel good and are rugged in a sort of quiet way.

Ordered my first pair of these last February 10th. Was working at a retail store that requires black shoes and they are perfect for being on your feet and moving around a lot. Now, a year later, I just placed an order for my second pair of the exact same shoes. Have since changed jobs to working at a school. I still wear them to work; with my dress cloths (shirt, tie and slacks). They're not dress shoes by any means but they are inconspicuous in Black when wearing black or gray pants. Not to mention they are the most comfortable for working in IT or any job that you are on the move a lot. No one says anything about them being inappropriate, job performance is much more important. If they ever did, I would go and get a doctors-note to wear them. Just buy them! Oh, and I wear 12 wide (2E, EE, etc), they fit perfect! Zappos rules!

I bought these for work and not to run or cross train in. I wanted an all black comfortable athletic shoe to wear with business causal attire and they were perfect. I'm all on my feet all day and half of that is walking back and forth from my office and room to room. The shoe has the right price!

It's a great shoe. My 12 year old son reports comfort. He's hard on shoes. These seem to stand up. Delivery and customer care with Zappos are always top notch!

My husband loves these. They are cute and retro. He works at a software firm so he can wear them to work with nice jeans and a J Crew hoodie and look stylish.

I really like these shoes which I bought for my daily walking. They are light and give good support. My only gripe is that they feel a bit short for a size 9, but I will break them in and they will be fine.

Just a really great shoe. I put on others but I always come back to this super comfortable number. And I even like the color (orange).

Classic New Balance shoe. Comfort and style. loosens up the more you wear it. Only grip is the shoe lace material is slippery and loosens up easily.

I've worn these off an on for many years. I remember when the NB 574 was a top running shoe, but now I use these strictly as a casual shoe with jeans. They're comfortable and a good value.
