I love them, they fit like a glove. But be careful in the image they show a little brown, they are true black as in description
Reviewer Angel Boo
These are just perfect. I will buy these again.

I have been wearing these flipflops all summer, every summer for almost 20 years. I get a new pair every year. I love them.

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!

When my husband's sneakers started wearing out after only a couple of months, he picked these out on Amazon and has been raving about them ever since. He wears a size 8, which is what I ordered, and has a very narrow foot. These fit perfectly.

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.

Good shoe for the price. Not easy to just slip on, but once you have them laced, they feel great.
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.

Husbands daily wear now. Comfortable.

I like these shoes a lot. They are super light weight. They look good and feel good. I have a very wide foot. My predecessors to these shoes were almost as expensive, and I ended up "blowing out" the sides of both shoes because of my wide feet. There is a little bit of slop in these shoes, but I ordered them 1/2 size bigger to be able to wear 2 pairs of socks with these in the winter. With 2 pairs of socks, these are as close to perfect as I could hope for. I paid about $35 with prime. If these "blow out", I will report back, but I think they are going to be just fine.
