The New Balance 574 Core continues to defy trends and other artificial distinctions to become a fixture in closets all over the world.

Really Comfortable Shoes
These New Balance 574s are the perfect mix of comfort, style, and sustainability. The suede and mesh upper looks sleek while staying breathable, and the ENCAP midsole cushioning gives amazing support for all-day wear. I really like that the EVA foam and rubber outsole include renewable and recycled materials, which makes them an eco-friendlier choice without sacrificing quality. The adjustable lace closure makes it easy to get the perfect fit, and they feel just as good for casual wear as they do for long walks. A classic sneaker that truly lives up to its reputation!

So Comfortable – Perfect for Long Days on My Feet!
This is my first pair of New Balance shoes, and I’m officially a fan for life. I got the original 574s in a size 5.5 wide, and they fit perfectly. I’m on my feet for 8+ hours a day, and these have been incredibly comfortable from the very first wear—no breaking-in needed.They’re supportive, breathable, and have just the right amount of cushioning. The wide fit gives my feet room without feeling bulky, and I really appreciate how lightweight they are for the amount of support they provide.For the quality and comfort, I honestly feel like these are a great value. You can tell they’re built to last, and they’ve already made a huge difference in how my feet feel after a long shift.Plus, I love the dark color—exactly the look I was hoping for. Stylish but low-key, which is exactly my vibe.I already plan to buy another pair. Highly recommend if you want comfort, durability, and style all in one.

Great for flat feet+
Super comfortable for my flat feet! Got due to torn ACL after surgery. Super supportive and great for walking. Look nice and even make my feet look smaller.

Perfect Vacation Shoes – Comfortable and Cute
I bought these New Balance shoes for a trip to Chicago. They’re very cute, stylish, and go with just about everything. The first day they were fine, but by day two and three, my feet were killing me. I didn’t feel much arch support, and they just weren’t made for all-day walking. On the fourth day, I had to stop at DSW and buy a real pair of walking shoes. I still think these are great for everyday errands or casual wear, just not for hours of walking day after day.

Comfort, stylish, True to Size and wider foot bed for comfort, lots of padding
Love New Balance. Has a wider foot bed and so comfy. Also they are trendy and fashion forward.I wear size 8-1/2 normally and these fit perfectly with a thin sock or barefoot. Size 9 is too big.Love the black and grey color and goes great with my new VARLEY black sweat pant set for long travels.This is all I am buying moving forward

Great walking shoe…
I bought these based on recommendations from a FB walking group which is completely unaffiliated with New Balance or any other brand of anything. As a beginner walker, I like the price range. They were comfortable right off the bat. I have regular width (not narrow or wide) feet, and an appreciation for a roomy toe box. Ordering my usual size was perfect. I also like that they don’t make my feet look like boats, even in white.

Die Schuhe passen gut – wie bei New Balance aber immer – hat man eine “Zwischengröße”, sollte man immer die größere Größe auswählen.

Ce n’est pas du 40, mais du 38. Il y a erreur sur la taille du produit.
