Bought these to use as a lighter travel alternative to my heavier workout shoes. Perfect. They would not be for me to use for high impact exercise but great for walking while traveling,running errands etc. Have almost a linen look so a bit nicer & works well for what I needed.

These are cute and a nice change from the usual bright colors of most sneakers, and they are very comfortable. Sizing is right on. But they squeaked loudly! Maybe it's just this particular pair!

These retro looking shoes are so cute. I expected that w/ NB having a reputation for a wide toe box they would not be a problem, but I really needed a wider shoe. I love the classic style, but I do feel that they are narrower than their other styles. Sadly, they have to go back.

I love all the colors so much and have 5 pairs in the 574 brand, however these shoes were a little more stiff than the other ones. I still kept them because I love the color but they are not as comfortable as my other ones!

Not a serious running or athletic shoe, but very cute and fits the bill for a trip to the gym. Rather round toe box. Great color combination.

Very nice, comfortable. Love the colors. The only downside is that since the bottom rubber is white, it gets dirty easily.

I liked the look of the shoe. But, it has a very stiff feel to it. Because I want it for cross training it won't work. If I just wanted it for everyday, it would probably be fine.

I love these shoes; however, they run really big. I normally wear a size 10, so that's what I ordered. They are easily half to a full size too big. Other than that, super cute and I love them.

Love this throwback. This shoe more than earns the style points. Is extremely comfortable. My heel lifted slightly in the shoe but now that I've worn them for a week that problem seems to have corrected itself. I'd order these again.

The style was nice but not for me. Not the best quality and the heel cup was too deep.

These shoes fell apart after wearing them fewer than 10 times. Separated at the toes and from the sole of the shoe in the instep.

The toe box is narrow, and the shoe is short. I thought the materials were very stiff. Didn't think they would be a good choice for the aerobic dance class I attend.

They are very cute, but seemed stiffer than I was expecting, and not very cushioned in the sole. Sadly, they are going back

I really loved the look of these shoes and wanted so badly for them to be comfortable but I had to return them. The tongue on the shoe was thick and bothering the top of my foot and ankle.

So sad when I put them on but my toe touched the front of the shoe. hoping the 11.5 in black come back in stock soon so I can exchange for those.

The look and style were what sold me and I loved the colors! Unfortunately, I ended up having to return these as the back part of the shoe was too high and rubbed on each side of my Achilles. I was afraid this would not be comfortable for the long haul.

Absolutely the cutest shoes and pretty comfortable. Unfortunately they don't get shipped with any packaging material inside the box so the suede was already scuffed. Super disappointed

These are wide at the heel. My heel moved so much in the shoe that my socks got pulled down into the shoe. Not a good fit for my foot.

I did not like the glittery black trim, nor the shiny fabric. Neither were obvious to me from the photo. If only New Balance would bring back the 220! ?

Super cute but tab in back at heel seems quite high and rubs wrong. Seems these shoes were designed for the street and not for exercise. Returning.

The heel is very low so there is no support if needed. However, Zappos returned with NO problem at all!!! They rock
