Size 7 my normal size was short in the toe area. Sizing up would not work for me because there was some heel slip but I do have slider heel area.

I've never bought New Balance shoes before but these had the extra padding in front by the toe that works good for me. And these are a little bit wider in the front that I need. I only wore them once so far and they are very comfortable. The only problem I have with them is the heal slips a little so I have to tie them a little tighter but it works.

Super cute shoe but about a half size short. The burgundy color borders on purple but is beautiful. I wish these had fit!

I really like these shoes. I like the style and they are comfortable. I sized up as recommended and they are slightly too large. I will be ordering a new size.

All is good. I just have too many shoes and probably need to be practical and not get another pair, just for fun.

The NB classics 574 Core in burgundy is a great Fall color. NB is one of my go to brands because I need a wider, rounder toe area. My heel is regular so I look for shoes that I don't need a wide size. This one fits well.
I'd also recommend:

I find that I usually have to go a half size larger on NB, and it was the same with these. Very nice shoe, feels like quality construction, but the toe box was a bit too narrow for me, and the W would have been too wide in the heel for me, so these are going back.

I was worried because the reviews were a bit on both ends of negative and positive. These are so comfy and give my flat arches a bit more support. I sized up half a size and it fits well, although I feel like I could've kept my usual size though.

I love the color and style of these sneakers but they don't breathe very well. My feet got really warm in them after wearing them for only a couple of hours.

This show has become my new daily wear shoe. I love how much support my feet get in these. It's firm but still cloud-like, similar to memory foam--just a little less bouncy. I am really happy with this purchase. My only complaint is everytime I have owned new balances, they always drag my socks down. Not sure if this is just a defect in the style, or supposed to encourage me to stop wearing ankle socks. LOL

I usually wear 9 or even 9.5. I bought 9. 574 is pretty wide and roomy. I recommend half size down. I bought two pairs, black and Nimbus cloud. Both are a bit big, but comfy and pretty.

I has a pair of these when I was in middle school and loved them so I was eager to get another pair. I would give them five stars because they did not need any breaking in and they look go with many outfits. I'm a TTS 7.5 but had to go up to an 8.5 for full comfort. So I deducted one start for that.

Upon first wear I felt elevated and light as a feather. My only complaint is the toe box is a bit square.

This would have been my 3rd pair of New Balance shoes through LLBean. As soon as I took them out of the box I knew they would be too small. My normal size is 8.5m, but my toes were up against the front of the shoes. Sent back for a 9m. Hope it works cause I really like these walking shoes.

I ordered an 8 because that's the size of my last NB. Had to send it back and get a 7.5. What's up with the size inflation in sneaks?? I know my foot hasn't shrunk. It's a very nice shoe, only drawback is I don't like the design on the toe.

I love the design and colour way of this shoe but I wish I had known ahead of time that it was way too small. I am a size 5 women's and honestly that could have fit someone who wears a size 4. I have to bump up to size 6 womens. I first purchased a size 5, then returned and ordered a 5.5 thinking it was better and it's still a bit tight. Too many returns! Anyways going to get a 6.

I ordered the women's size 9 and the fit and comfort level are excellent. Very cute and stylish! The reason I gave them 4/5 stars is there is less arch support in this style of NB sneakers compared to others.

These shoes are super comfortable but not what I expected. I thought they were the more narrow 70s streamline style but they are definitely a wide foot bed with pronounced rounded toe. Great for someone with white feet!
