The shoe was way too wide for being a Medium width. I think it was a men's shoe not a women's shoe, the heel was also too wide.

I sized up a half size based on reviews for this shoe and others on this website overall. I normally wear a women's 8 and I ordered an 8.5. Unfortunately, they were still to small. My toes hit the front so I will be returning them. If you are buying these I recommend going up a full size! Seems 90% of the shoes on this website have sizing issues. I'm not sure why. This is the first time I have purchased on this site and will be the last. I'm not going to buy and return multiple pairs of shoes to find my size because the sizing is inaccurate. The shoes are comfy and very cute otherwise. Arrived quickly with tracking.

I went by your sizing chart & my shoes are too big. I need to return for a smaller size.

New balance shoe sizes run 1size larger than normal brand shoes. The soles of these shoes are super squeaky and u comfortable to walk in.

I had been wearing the 608 cross trainers for more than 10 years at the recommendation of a foot doctor - and I have never found a shoe as comfortable as those. I bought this U574v2 when I could not find the 608. This shoe was as uncomfortable as wearing shoes made from cardboard. After trying to walk in them twice for only a few minutes, I gave them away.

I have other 574s in this same size and these are at least a size too small. I don’t know if they’ve been mislabeled or what. Also, the quality of this version is sub par compared to my others. They look very cheaply made and the insole was not as cushiony.

This is a men’s shoe. Don’t be fooled they put it under woman’s. It fits different. Men ans woman’s shoes are different this shoe is wide. Shame on new balance and Zappos.

The shoe was short for the size. Not only did it feel small, but the insoles in both shoes refused to lie flat.

Stated medium width. But then was marked as D width. D is wide width. I need B width, D is not medium. I am returning it. The other pair I got a few years ago was a B width and fit great.

I think this particular pair was miss sized because I tried the 8 1/2 and it was loose and then I tried the 8 in another color and they were perfect, but I liked better this color, and they hurt my feet, bad.

I got another pair of 574s about a month ago from Zappos and they were perfect. This recent light gray pair were way too small, narrow and uncomfortable - almost as if they were knock offs. I'm not saying that was the case but they were so terrible they went back immediately. Zappos - as always were terrific but the shoes were awful.

Please make shoes that fit me again! I have work NB for years because of the slightly narrower toe area. The new styles are shorter and wider. I will have to find a new brand.

I didn't even try them on. Didn't like how "fuzzy" they were...The photo did not represent that well.

Completely fell apart in less than 6 weeks, the mesh on the toe box ripped on both sides and the blue color bled all over the yellow.

No classic reflective N like in past years (2016). The shoe tongue's is thin and not puffy as before. The insole is flat. Who ever designed this shoe should be forced to wear them on his or her hands to show off how atrocious they are

They are a beautiful shoe, but they hurt my feet. They are very tight in the toe. I wish they were wider and higher in the toe section.

Disappointing. Shoes look worn, fabric is a mess. Can't give them as a gift and will be returning. Ordered a different brand.
