Customer Reviews New Balance Classics U574v1

They were way too narrow

I have always loved the NB 574 but was surprised to see that on the newest model the tongue is not sewn and the inner foam is exposed. This is a serious decline in quality.

material not the best falling apart.

Really poor quality shoe from New Balance. The sole cushioning is work out after two months of wear. They don’t even stitch the fabric on the tongue anymore. It’s just open ended soft foam. Sad

A rare NB miss. Too much detailing and the black label on the side is intrusive. Quite snug for a brand with consistent sizing usually

NB what are you doing with the exposed foam on the tongue of the shoe?!?! I’ll pay $20 more if you will just finish making the shoe!

Not happy with the look the outside was shabby looking

Really like these shoes for style. The size was half size too small. I am typically Size 8 in NB shoes, but I have move up to size 8.5 Neverever worn a size 8.5 in my life. Let's see how they work out.

The color looked nothing like photo

These feel smaller than usual. I have another pair in 7.5 that don't feel this tight. Also, the back of the snearker material is totaly frayed and haggard on both sneakers. The rest of the material is smooth. This can't be how it was designed to look becuase this does not look good at all. The tongue of the snaker is also exposed and you can see the cusion which can't be good in the long run. Returing.

Immediately knew it was way too small. At least half a size, but probably more.

The size was too small. I wish I had ordered a size up. Will be returning.

I can't rate arch support bc I could barely get my foot in the shoe as it was. Can also not rate the shoe for comfort bc it was too tight to tell, even with the laces open wide. Bummer cause these are super cute. The sole also seemed like it had good grip

Too narrow to enjoy. Cute color in person though and style was cool.

Rather uncomfortable, very thin insole with little padding.

These sneakers were small and too narrow. The quality was less than what I expected. I usually like New Balance for the fit and comfort but not this time - I had to return them.

This is now ridiculous: this is the third pair I'm ordering and the bigger the size, the smaller the actual shoe is! I can barely put my foot in a shoe that is listed as 7.5M, and I wear 6.5W! He couldn't put it on at all and I thought he was being stubborn! 7M that he tried the other day was just big enough to have it on but not comfortably walk in them. A bad batch? No quality control? Something else? And these should be his 3rd NB pair.

I personally didn't like the quality of this shoe.

This thing was so tight despite getting half a size larger it cause a toe nail issue.

I needed a narrow shoe and only had options for a wide width. When I walk in these my heels slides up and down and that repeatedly would give me a blister.
