I was very excited to get these sneakers but was overall disappointed. First of all, they run small so definitely size up a half size. But sizing aside, I found the tongue to be very poorly constructed and it felt cheap, to the point that you can see the thin yellow foam used underneath the fabric. Even for casual, everyday shoes (not athletic) I was skeptical they would last. From New Balance and LL Bean my expectations were just higher. These were returned.

These look and feel so different in person. The nylon upper makes noise and appears wrinkly. The tongue is partially constructed with visible foam. Maybe I should have done more research before purchasing. First NB disappointment, I usually love their shoes.

Bought the same size i have in other NB sneakers and didn't check before taking the tag off - these are WAY big! Order half size down. Very comfy but sizing is off.

I wanted to like these so much. I'm obsessed with New Balance lifestyle shoes, and I have three pairs of 574s in my closet right now. I feel like I am having a hard time finding my size and color way in those, so I tried the 237. When I first opened the box, I thought, "oh no! I got an unfinished pair!" because the tongue of the shoe is not sewn up and you can see the foam inside. But then I went to a store and saw that that is how they're supposed to look. Anyway, I don't get it. They don't feel like the quality I'm used to from New Balance.

Felt at least a half size too small. Not comfortable at all. Pretty disappointed.

Emblem has animal print which cheapens design.

I was so excited to see these retro New Balance shoes. After they arrived, I unpacked them, only to find the nylon on the top of both shoes to be wrinkled. I tried the shoes on, and the wrinkling became worse. Unfortunately. I will be returning my purchase.

Honestly thought they were going to be more comfortable but I couldn't wait to take them off my feet. I had to take Advil to ease the pain. They're super cute but not comfy, at all.

I wanted a lighter colored, lightweight-ish shoe for summer. The white nylon part of this shoe was unbelievably cheap feeling and also not breathable. I just returned them.

I had the same model, different color. I ordered the same size. The pair I got where HUGE, and fit strange, like a men fit? Also, the quality is poor, which I did NOT expect, as my previous pair were excellent. The tongue of the sneakers is unfinished, you can see the foam - why would you not finish it? Or mention it in the description? I am very disappointed, it seems like the company is cutting corners and producing poor quality, and ugly items. Won't wear these shoes...and regret this purchase.

I bought these shoes because of the colour and style. My eyes deceived me. These are the most uncomfortable sneakers by NB and I've worn a lot of them. I really wanted to love them but they hurt my feet too much. So sad. Maybe it's just my feet.

I sent them back. They were coming apart at the seam. The glue wasn't sticking straight out the box.
