Customer Reviews New Balance Classics M574

The shoe has been great. It's my first pair of classic NB sneakers. While I do love the fit as my toes are no longer cramped in the toe box as they are in many other sneakers, I did have a problem with the sneaker (and only the right one). The top front suede has ripped, and that was only three months ago. I do wear them a lot though...it's tough for me because they are the best pair of sneakers I have had in a while and I am not a stickler for looks, but I figure this should not happen.

These are my son's favorite shoes ever! He has been wearing them for years and was thrilled to get a new pair!

These are hard to beat for casual shoes. I pair them with jeans and a tee or thermals. They last forever and are well worth the money. They come in good colors. This is my third pair. I will point out that they are bulkier shoes so they do not look good with skinny cut jeans. Unless you are a hipster type and then you have bigger issues anyway.

This was the first time I have ordered from Zappos and I had a great experience. Loved their customer service. One item was out of stock and for personal reasons wasn't checking my e-mail on regular basis by the time I looked it was two days before Xmas so had to cancel my order. Not only did they send me a nice letter they sent me a beautiful arrangement. Best service I have ever received. Love them and have told all my friends. Oh yeah, the item I did receive was great.

Best shoes I have ever owned. I bought them before a trip to Disney World and my feet were still feeling great even after 5 days walking all over the parks. Liked them so much I bought a pair for my dad for Christmas.

These shoes feel very good on my feet. I have exercised and walked in them and they are very comfortable.

I love these shoes! They are helping me recover from bunion surgery, they are cute, they are retro (this is like what I wore in high school and college in the late 70s early 80s) and more comfortable than my NB 1123s! I plan to order a few more pairs!

These shoes are comfortable, stylish, good walking around, every day shoes. The "grey" pair, though, is actually kind of brown. To me it wasn't too big a deal. I played soccer and ran in these shoes just to see what it was like, and I can't really recommend them. I would stick to regular running shoes for that kind of thing. But for just hanging out, they're pretty cool. Plus, my name starts with an N, so...chyeeaaah.

I wanted some shoes to go with blue jeans. I first bought these shoes in gray/silver/white but the gray was more like beige, I didn't like the white laces either, and they didn't go with blue jeans, so I sent them back. I then ordered navy/silver/suede and now I'm happy. They are comfortable casual shoes, not over-constructed like most current athletic shoes, and a bargain. The fit is the same as other New Balance shoes I've had, which is a bit smaller than other brands; I always order 1/2 size bigger with New Balance and then they fit well.

The are exactly the NB quality I expected. I ordered my typical size and the fit is perfect. Ordering and delivery were flawless. I've bought my last pair of shoes from a brick and mortar retailer.

My husband loves these shoes. This is the second pair I have bought him. I bought him the first pair 7 years ago for Christmas and just now purchased his second pair for this Christmas! They look good with everything and last so long.

This is the lightest shoe I have ever worn. The cushioning is just right as well. I am buying a second pair to have them ready when I wear these out.

I've never owned a pair of NB, so I wasn't sure how they'd fit. First of all, these shoes required no breaking in. No pain, no rubbing from day one unlike with my previous pair of skater shoes. My only complaint is that the design of the toe box is a bit bigger than other brands. To draw a parallel with hats, the toe box on these is middle profile, whereas I prefer the low profile toe box of the Adidas ZX series that taper more at the tip and minimize the appearance of the size of your feet.

Great shoe. Very comfortable and stylish without going overboard.

Comfy. Look good. They don't hurt ma feets. I don't use the New Balance insole though. I pull those out and pop in an Archmold.

Great shoe that is very comfortable!

Found these shoes in the Sales and Clearance section. I've been looking for this style sneaker for a while, but could never find them in wide. Great shoe, comfortable, good price. What more could you ask for? As always, Zappos' service was great!

My son just had to have these shoes. Zappos had the best price and we got them in less than 24 hours! It was amazing and he is thrilled! The wide width being available was a bonus! I am a new, dedicated customer. Love this site! His shoes rock!

This shoe is surprisingly comfy and fits great! I ordered a size 16 and it fits like a glove. I would highly recommend it to anyone and my get a different color (I got the gray). I wish New Balance would make more shoes in larger sizes.

Awesome shoes - you cant go wrong with the classics. I would have to say these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn.

This is the third pair of these shoes that I have purchased. Three pair have survived 2 years of high school and a year and a half of college for our teenage son. They hold up well. They even do well in the dorm washing machines. These have been worn pretty much every day, all day, for lots of walking and some running. The shoes do expand a small amount. We thought the second pair was a bit snug as compared to the first pair, and tried a larger size, but that was too big. WIth a few days of use, the original-size shoes loosened-up. So in the end, we think the sizing has been consistent over the years. Happy that these have been around for a few years that makes the decision making easier. I hope to be able to buy another just like this one in a year or so.

Good shoes. My husband works in a cabinet shop and he's on his feet for hours at a time. He has very wide feet, so it isn't easy to rely on true width & size without seeing them first. He's very pleased with these and good fit, too!

I've had them for a few weeks so far. Very comfortable. I got the 2E width and they fit perfectly. They look great and I've gotten compliments at work. Great service by Zappos, as usual.

Very comfortable, run slightly on the large size (I usually wear a 15 in New Balance, but a 14 fit me in this). Overall a great shoe, and a bargain!
