Zappos performed above and beyond as they always do. The shoes showed up in excellent condition and are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned.

Stick with New Balance, that's where it's at.

Great fitting and comfortable shoe. I have wide feet and not easy to find shoes that fit well, these do.

I bought these shoes for my husband -- they are his favorite. He has had at least 4 pairs of the same shoes and does not want another shoe for casual wear. Hope New Balance continues to make them for years to come!

I have a hard time finding shoes that fit right. Usually anything but skateboard shoes are too narrow. These fit great. They look great, better than the online pics. Very comfortable. Zappos is great, I'll be buying another pair sometime.

Great shoes, absolutely great. Fit well, very comfortable. Go well with dark jeans or shorts (with low black socks of course).

The price was right, the time it took to get here was impressive, the shoes fit and feel terrific. What more could one ask for. Thanks, great job.

These are my first New Balance shoes in ages, and I can't believe I've never run into M574's earlier. They're very comfortable and they look great. These shoes are not heavy either. Will be buying another pair.

Very comfortable shoe with a lot of support. Usually the first thing I do is go out and buy gel inserts, didn't have to do that with these shoes. I use them for walking up and down hills , going to the gym, etc. Lots and lots of walking and I haven't noticed my feet getting tired at all (they're good shoes if you don't notice them, IMO) The size seems true, My feet are pretty large (14) and by no means skinny, but the regular width fits just fine.

I ordered this size because I have a well-fitting New Balance another type. This particular model seems smaller than the other 9.5 2E. It is also a bit hot for summer wear. I have taken out the insole for the moment and that gives a decent fit and more coolness.

Very light shoe, good for running but I wouldn't go hiking in these they are fairly thin material so I imagine they would get destroyed easily on rough terrain. Buy 'em if you are just going to pound the pavement.

This is definitely one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I've been looking to find something this comfortable for years since my old pair of campers had to retire. It's comfortable all around from the first time you put it on. There is no warm up period. It's quite soft on the sole. I also like that you can easily remove the inner sole in case you want to use a custom one. highly recommended.

Great shoe. I wear it as an all around casual shoe. It doesn't seem like it would be good for athletic use(long distance running, sprinting, etc.) but I don't think that is what it is designed for. It's exactly what I expected.

My husband loves the shoes! Very comfortable. They do fit a little snug, so order the wide size. Otherwise, we love Zappos and the return, exchange policy. It was so easy!

I bought these shoes because of the other great reviews they had on Zappos and because my old shoes would break within two to four months. These shoes have held up well and are still as comfortable as they were when I got them out of the box. These are a well made and wonderful shoe which is why they got five stars in every category.

Great shoes! Very comfortable. I use them for casual wear (not running) and they are perfect. Look great. Highly recommend.

I had been looking for this shoe in stores, but it seems nobody had it in stock. I bought it online, in my shoe size and found it to run about a half size small. I wear orthotics so I remove the stock liners, but these shoes give decent arch support for a casual walking shoe. I do not plan on running in them or using them to workout, so I am not too worried about the support while walking around town. When they arrived, they had a couple of discolored spots on the right toe of the shoe-like somebody had spilled coffee on them, but other than that they look great. I am happy I bought them and will get another pair when these wear out.

This is a very comfortable shoe, especially the roomy toe box. I got the gray ones and they look pretty good with jeans. They are not flashy at all. I'm very happy with the purchase and I highly recommended.

I bought these already broken in at a used shoe store almost 9 years ago. They're still in perfect shape except for a greenish tint from mowing the lawn in them. I've even worked landscaping in them a few times. They have to be the most durable running shoes on the planet. They're also the most comfortable shoes I own. The gray goes with anything. I'll buy another pair from Zappos when funds allow.

I love my M574\'s. The retro look is appealing but the comfort and durability are what make them stand out. I\'ve had mine for a year and a half and they\'re still holding up after daily use.

Awesome, awesome shoe. I\'ve been wearing these sneakers for probably the last 5 years now. These are the best casual sneakers period. They are very comfortable and look great--everytime I get a new pair I get compliments. I\'ve had my current pair for 2 years now because NB doesn\'t produce the color anymore and I\'m too lazy to find a replacement. They\'ve lasted pretty well though, probably because I finally went with the right size. And they STILL get compliments. Get these. Now.

Wow Zappos! I placed my order yesterday and had my shoes the next morning! I was a little hesitant about ordering these NBs since I last wore this style in the late 1990s, but I forgot how nice they look and the arch support they offer! The width is a *tad* snug, but nowhere near approaching a level of uncomfort. They are also true to size. A great shoe!

The only shoe that fits -
New Balance Classic M574 is about the only shoe that I have ever found that fits right. My toes are spread out from walking barefoot for many years. M574 has room for my toes and I am so thankful. I like the Grey/Silver/White ones. Please do not stop making them.
