I like these shoes. I like the fact that you have them in wide width. I do wish you had a version with velcro straps and not just lace up.

I have feet that need shoes to have proper support. I typically wear an orthotic because I will get tremendou pain from walking/running due to accessory navicular in me feet. These shoes are actually working great without my inserts. The quality is way above similar shoes that are double this price. They remind me of my childhood (80s) which is a plus for me and my personal preference. The only thing I notice (and it's minor) is they seem to slip more on surfaces than other shoes. They could use a new tread pattern but really time will tell how these do. I bought two pair. One for running and one for every day use.

The fit is true and these shoes are as comfortable as the same-model shoes that I bought several years ago. Fashion purists may be disappointed that the emblem N on the side is cheap-looking leather (vinyl?) rather than a suede that would match the leather on the rest of the shoe.

He loved the gift, straight flashback but he didn't remember them having such little support.

Wanted to get a gray shoe but didn't want to spend the $175 that the 990 or 993 sell for and the 574 looked to be the perfect balance between price and appearance. Additionally, I have a pair of the NB 574 Sports that fit perfectly so ordering the same size should have resulted in the same perfect fit ... Nope!...these were measurably smaller in every dimension so reluctantly returned them. Will likely have to move up to one of the more expensive shoes that offer more fit options. I don't generally wear a "wide" and moving up a 1/2 size in this shoe was not an option since I wear a size 12 and the higher end shoes are available in 12.5. Anyway, loved the shoe and wish I could have gotten the fit.

Comfortable, but toe box is large so my usual size 12 was a bit big, and the "N" as well as the heel tab are a reflective material, which was not (as far as I can tell) indicated in the shoe description, and which I doesn't really work for me as I intended to wear this as a casual shoe and not a running shoe. I found another 574 color scheme that did not have reflective materials, ordered a size 11.5 which fit perfectly, and returning this pair.

First time buying New Balance and 574. Shoes are classic and comfortable. Worth every penny. The only complain I have is the sole is a bit thick and I'm still getting used to it. And I wish New Balance will offer more color choices on other models like 1300 and 990.

I purchased these as a gift. Although they are made well, and colors are exactly as pictured online, the overall fit is too small. My husband wears a size 10 and these should fit. We will exchange for 10.5 and hopefully they fit.

My son was used to wearing Nike Flex shoes and he started complaining on heel pain when doing athletics. We switched to these shoes no the pain went away. They provide him with better support and no pain.

I wore a review on the 574s and how slippery their treads are when wet. That still applies for 574 core but these are a lot more comfortable than 574s as far as how soft and breathable the materials are.

I really like the 574 Core Navy but gave it a 4 instead of a 5 because it used to be a darker Navy Blue and now it's a lighter blue. I liked the darker blue a little more.

I have wide feet, and I am hard on shoes. I originally bought a pair of 574s because (a) they were available in EE and (b) the uppers were mostly leather & I thought were less likely to rip prematurely than fabric uppers. About 8 months later, they were still holding up well, if a little ratty looking, and the tread was beginning to wear out, so I bought a 2nd pair. Identical model, and the fit was exactly the same - a half size larger than I normally wear, but perfectly consistent.

The 574 has always been one of my favorite shoes, they are comfortable and last. these are true to size. My only problem, which is probably temporary and could be due to covid, is the lack of color choices in my size, this seems to be true of several different styles the 990,880 and 574. Other than the lack of color choices it is a 5 star.
