I missed the cue in the online description that these are actually men’s sizes. I have a narrow female foot that’s just not shaped like a man’s foot. I also hated the way that the top edge from the heel to the tongue is raw and unfinished looking. It exposes an inner layer of thin foam and looks as if it would deteriorate quickly. These are the first NB shoes I have ever not liked, but they went back to Nordstrom’s. First NB stopped making the 10 1/2 Narrow shoe size that was best for me, and now they are trying to fit women into men’s shoes.

Great fit. Great comfort. Awesome style. Shipping is fast on New Balance sight. Ordered 2 pairs for Christmas gifts. Hard to find styles in stores are usually found on website with multiple sizes. One son wears men's 15 and NB comes thru with carrying that size! Most everyone is my home has switched to NB for comfort and style now

I’m glad these are back “in”. Bought them for my teenage son. His only complaint is he was disappointed that there’s no reflective material on this colorway like many of the other 574’s. Also I feel they run a little big. If you’re between sizes I would size down.Other than that it’s a great shoe for the price. Shipping took a little longer than expected but overall it was still pretty quick.

Very comfy trainer, used for commuting and also exercising, did body combat class in them and they had good grip and gave me no back pain so good for higher impact activities. I'm usually a size 6 but I took the advice of the other reviewers for this style and purchased size 6.5 which is super comfy. It was a little loose around the ankle so I used the extra side eyelet and that resolved the issue. I'd give these a 5 star for comfort but they made my feet overly warm so I didn't find them as airy for temperature control as other trainers I own. Nice colour options and this beige/grey/white mixture goes with lots.
Love New Balance! I find their trainers especially the 574 really comfortable whilst looking good. I wasn't sure I liked this colour way (grey, yellow and black) but found it in store and they look a lot nicer than the photo online. Colours are quite neutral so will go with most outfits. New balance sizing seems a bit small I'm a 6.5 but size up to a 7 which fits perfectly. This style is also quite wide which works for me
The shoes look great which is why I was drawn to them when I saw them online. Ordered a pair and they didn't disappoint, the comfort is also very nice. Not as good as my 990v6's but I was expecting that. My only gripe and what ended up causing me to send them back was the inside material (lighter gray) almost looks like a t-shirt material and something about it didnt resonate with me. I also feel like these would be a nightmare to clean. otherwise great looking shoe.
I recently bought these sneakers for my son to wear to school, and they have exceeded my expectations. The comfort level is outstanding, making them perfect for all-day wear. The color is exactly as shown in the pictures, which my son loves. The laces are also a great length, making them easy to tie securely. Overall, these sneakers are a fantastic choice for both style and comfort. Highly recommended!
Gender Inclusive 574 SneakerSelect a rating below(Select 5 stars = Excellent, 1 star = Poor)★★★★★★★★★☆★★★☆☆★★☆☆☆★☆☆☆☆Gender Inclusive 574 SneakerYour reviewNordstrom mishandled this order from the get go. First, I never received an email telling me that my order was ready for pick up. My first clue was an email asking for a review of my purchase. Second, There was no apology when I mentioned this to the customer service rep. Third, we opened the box when we got home only to find that Nordstrom had substituted the shoe I had ordered for a different one. The one I ordered had bungee laces and they substituted a shoe with standard laces. This is going back on Sunday when we will be at the mall.
I’ve been buying the 574s for many years. It seems the quality with this pair has taken a nose dive. They are cheap feeling. No doubt they have been produced at a lower cost or a different producer bc the quality is noticeably different than what it has been in the past. Do better new balance.
If you're wanting to liven up your footwear this winter then these are definitely for you! In the classic NB design, this season they come in some really great bold colour options. When everything else is so dreary, I think a bold pop of colour on my feet could be just what's needed to cheer me up! These are amazingly comfy for fashion trainers and I am going to be wearing these with jeans and a burgundy or pink jumper to match my feet or with a simple black or grey jumper dress and let the shoes do the talking! I would say that these run small, I got them in my usual size, but I actually wish I would have sized up as there is not much room in them. They also don't look particularly waterproof (I haven't rain tested them so this may be unfounded) so as we all know ...

All in all though, I think they are excellent value and I love them!
