Would be 5 stars if they had more size options. They are super comfortable and seem to be well made. Will update if they don’t last. I use them for basic strength workouts and on the stair climber. Close to being bare foot.
I wear a size 13 sneaker and 12 Wide for leather shoes. The XL is slightly too big for me and the L is slightly too small.

I normally only wear 574's from New Balance, but I purchased these because they share the same shoe last and they're similar. I can't say that I like them as well, but they're alright.
I believe the mid-soles are different, and while I think I like the 574 mid-sole better, the 565 doesn't seem bad. One thing I definitely don't like as well is the lack of mesh in the all-suede upper. They probably don't breath as well, but that's not a huge factor for me in a suede shoe. I just like the looks of the mesh/suede combo better then the all-suede shoe.
I saved my final criticism for last, because it applies to both the 565 and 574 models of "Lifestyle and Retro" shoes. These are the ones with model numbers that start with "ml". I don't like them because they appear to be the hipster version of New Balance shoes, with laces that usually match the suede. Like any good hipster shoe, they seem to be more narrow, which is antithetical to the very thing that made the 574, and probably 565, popular shoes in the first place (i.e. spacious.) Even though these are supposedly made on the same shoe last as other models in the line, they definitely don't have the advertised toe depth of the SL-2 shoe last. I've also noticed that many New Balance shoes made on the SL-2 last don't seem to be as wide as they used to be, so that issue probably isn't for the lifestyle and retro shoes alone.
Seems strange that New Balance would ruin a popular line of shoes by changing the very things that made them popular, but that's what they seem to be doing. For customers that want a more narrow 574, it seems like New Balance would just suggest the 363 or one of their models made on narrow shoe lasts. Regardless, I wish they'd leave the SL-2 shoes alone, so that customer who appreciate them can continue to do so. I've worn them for 20 years and the only thing that will stop that is if New Balance changes the shoes so much that they're not the same.

Great shoes for mild winter and spring. Look great and waterproof

Never had vans before, thought I would give them a try. They are very well made and sturdy. The only reason I gave them 4 stars was the first day I wore them I got a blister on the back of my heel from them. Hopefully I can break them in with no more blisters! I really like the shoes so I hope they work out!

Fine shoes, after wearing for a few days (will update later if problems arise). I wear orthotic insoles and the insoles that come with these sneakers are easy to remove and replace.
Reviewer Yair Ackerman
These shoes are very comfortable as expected once you get them on. A shoe horn is almost required

Reviewer Jason Capson
Purchased these Hightops for my vacation and the shoe did not disappoint. I paired it with my Bob Marley socks and my T-shirt that I also purchased from Amazon.
Amazon has great deals on fashion clothing😀

Reviewer Valerie Kelley
I ordered these shoes but i've already had experience with skechers and they do run a little big so i ordered a size smaller. It's a comfortable shoe.
