I need a large toe box and friends suggested Altra brand. I'm not a runner nor a hiker, but I do go to the gym and do some walking, thus I want a good shoe. I usually wear 9-5 to 10 and I have narrow feet. I tried the Olympic style in 9.5 but toe touched the end and they didn't have any in size 10. Thank goodness for Free Returns!! I found this style and bought it in size 10, and it was a bit cheaper than the Olympics style. The day I got it I wore it to the gym then wore around the house the remainder of the day. The shoe is light and comfortable! I forgot I had it on except when walking on the laminate floor it kinda sounds like cleats. The description doesn't say it's a trail shoe but still has the grippy type things around the outer edge of the bottom of the shoe -- not a big deal to me. I've only wore the shoes twice but so far I'm very pleased!

Love these shoes. Look great. Very comfortable. Might not be so good if you have narrow feet.

The first time I saw the "Backpack" line of shoes from New Balance, I knew that I'd one day be adding a pair to my collections of 574's. Nylon uppers just seems like a fantastic idea, since nylon is so easy to clean and keep clean. I liked the idea of being able to get them dirty, knowing that they'll clean up better then other 574's. Because of this, I might even wear them when I normally wouldn't want to get my shoes dirty.
I haven't had them long enough to make that decision, or know exactly how well they'll clean up, but there is something else different about them that immediately caught my attention. Ever since New Balance changed the manufacturing process for the 574's, I think they've been smaller and less comfortable then versions before that time. I just purchased another pair of 574's a couple of weeks back and noticed this immediately when putting them on, as I always do with a new pair of 574's nowadays.
This pair, however, feels more like the older 574's, because they're so comfortable. My first thought was that maybe they made them like the old ones, but after comparing them to numerous other pairs I have, both old and new, I don't think that's it. The soles still match the newer version (i.e. they're more narrow), but still, I'm pretty sure they have more toe room in the uppers, because they both look and feel as if they do.
I've been a little disappointed with every pair I've purchased, since they changed the manufacturing process, because they're just not as comfortable as they used to be. For whatever reason, these, however, seem closer to what I remember a new pair feeling like and that has me really happy. They are very comfortable shoes.

My 15-year-old is so happy with these old school style shoes. I have to talk to him about Run DMC, Fashion repeats itself
I would recommend this shoe!
Reviewer Nefi Falabella
The shoes are quality made; however, they're tight across the top of my feet. Perhaps after they're broken in they will be more comfortable.
Reviewer Terry Beck
I like the shoes they fit comfortable

My husband wore these so much till they were falling apart but that been like 3 years now. I wish I could find a woman's pair with the pocket on the side like this that I like. I would love to have a pair for myself.

I have very wide feet and the 4E width is perfect. I bought 2 colors, black and olive. Very happy with them!
