Customer Reviews New Balance Classics 574

Runs way too small!

I usually wear size US 9 M shoes. On top of that, I've comfortably worn size EU 43 Vibram 5 fingers. The New Balance size chart shows US 9 M the equivalent of EU 43, so I ordered size 9 M. They fit snugly and feel alright if I'm just sitting down wearing them. But when I go out to walk, and I do wear socks, my feet feel cramped, especially at the big toe. It's a bit of a shame, really, since otherwise they're nicely made. I hope they'll break in a bit more, or I'll just have to relegate them to casual use. But I already have some VANS which are my casual shoes, size 9M, and they don't cramp my feet.

I found the toe box to be not tall enough nor wide enough for my foot. I do usually wear standard width shoes, but these were a little too snug in the front section for me.

I like the shoe however they are too small. I usually buy a 8 1/2. In this style I would need a size 9.

I love the look of the shoe. They feel a little short but not uncomfortable so I’m keeping them.

I like this shoe and have others in this style. The only reason I am returning is I decided that the green would not go with enough of my clothes. Love these classics!

I love this shoe so much I tried ordering another 574 and it isn't the same! I am now on a quest to understand how to get the same shoe.

I wear orthotics and mine fit into them OK.....They need to put less foam in the tongue.....I do not know why many of the manufacturers are padding the tongues so much.

I’m usually US10.5 in Nike, NB, and Ascis running shoes. And US10 in NoBull (weightlifting), TOMS, and Sperry sneakers. This shoes fits small. I went with US11 for the best fit. Zappos was superb at letting me exchange shoes two times before I find the right fit. Nobody can beat this level of customer service. Buying all my shoes from Zappos from now on.

I absolutely love the style, colors, and texture of this shoe. I have a narrow foot but this shoe feels tight. Other than that, I love this shoe.

Stylish color selection and fit true to size. Insoles could be a bit better as they wear out faster than the rest of the shoe.
