Nike Air Humara terra Undefeated Light Mental

Reviewer H Mary Cork

I normally wouldn't consider a synthetic leather shoe, because I'd never seen any that weren't awful in nearly every way possible. The only reason I considered these is because I needed shoes that fit very particular criteria and one of them was that they're synthetic. So I ordered a pair to evaluate them and the verdict is very positive.

It's not real leather, but it's close. It actually reminds me of cheap leather shoes, but without all the creasing (like comfortable Reeboks, which used loose leather for comfort). The rubber sole seems comfortable and the synthetic lining looks like it'll be easy to keep clean. It has average arch support and the insole is stuck in place, but it does offer good cushioning.

I ordered my normal sneaker size and it fits great, so I'd say the sizing is perfect (I wear a a half size larger in New Balance and sometimes with Nike). The laces are a little long, but just a little and they're nice laces.

Overall, they're nice shoes. No, they're not real leather and I didn't judge them as if they were. But there are some advantages with synthetic leather shoes and these will work great for those who understand they're not leather.

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.

Just what I wanted but couldn't find in the stores

Reviewer Ruth Worley

These are some sick shoes! The quality is superb and they look awesome with jeans and casual wear because of the sneaker style. They are the perfect pair for the high fashion gentleman in your life that also has a bit of edge and he will be sure to receive plenty of compliments.

Reviewer Miguel Amadis

These are some really nice dark brown leather shoes for men. The leather and soles are both very good quality. These are nicely shaped and the finish is just beautiful. My husband really likes these shoes a lot and they look so good on his feet. He wears a size 8 and these shoes fit well (size 8). As of this review I don't know how much they cost but they are some fine looking dress shoes.

These are perfect classic tennys to wear all day. Neither too masculine or feminine, light to medium grays in the color. Sole is stable & comfortable without being clunky on. Inside some padding, outer is a strong netting on top of shoe and a layer of material underneath that. I'm 67 and feet have flattened out with time but, these are comfortable support for me all day

I wore these all summer/ fall and they still look great- far better than I expected. The leather is a good quality and holds up to rain and lots of wear. I use a custom foot bed for added arch support.

Purchased this style previously in another color for my teenage nephew and he loved them so I purchased this pair for him as well. He was wearing the other ones all the time so now he can rotate them based on what he is wearing. They are comfortable and stylish all at the same time.
