Having worn 574s for about 15 years I was interested to try the 373. The main difference is in the overall bulk of the shoe. The 373 is much more form fitting with a slightly lower ankle and slightly thinner sole. Comfort is comparable in both shoes, but from a fashion point of view they compliment clothes differently. The 373 I wear with slimmer jeans that have smaller cuffs, which I still prefer the 574 when wearing a boot cut jean or shorts.

I bought these specifically for cycling with old fashioned toe clips, because I'm weird and I like to know about history and experience things. They were advertised as 10.5US, they are 44eu instead of 45 eu - meaning they "run small", and it's a small 44. I still fit in them, even if they are a tad tight and have been using them with an old peugeot PH11 with the original triangular pedals from the mid 1980's - that style inspired the Look system of "clipless" pedals famously introduced by Greg Lamond in the famous tour pursuit of the badger. Mostly, I just want to pursue coffee and sunshine.
I think these might be the best shoes you can currently buy for use with cycling toe-clips, without spending a fortune or getting shoes that are 20 years old and falling apart. If you're more accustomed to swing out clipless systems such as Look, CrankBros, or Spd, you will recognize immediately that toe clips are far inferior - it took me a few miles to stop yanking my foot out of the back as I tried to sweep through the bottom of my pedal stroke, and it's hard to remember to loosen the strap when coming to a stop. These Puma shoes are very similar to the old sidi shoes that used to be common in cycling, except there's really no stiffness at the end of the toes, and I could tell that I would get a blister on my big toe as a result, so I must meditate on rule 5 of the Velominati prior to using them. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Puma took this shoe design from an old cycling shoe, the laces are shifted to the outside of the shoe and are easy to keep away from the cranks, while the foot bottom is as stiff as any modern cycling shoe. I think it would be hell to walk around in and I really can't comment on their utility as driving shoes.
The ferrari symbol is a regrettable attribute, as my place in society (AKA not a billionaire) would dictate that anyone wearing such driving shoes while tooling around in their ferrari not only has more money than sense, but likely has additional baggage that (fingers crossed) allows me to feel morally superior; which would make up for being hugely outclassed, financially. It's a kind of 99%'ers sour grapes, you know? If you are this person, please feel free to leave me validating comments about the woes in your otherwise blessed life. Mo-money mo problems?

Fit as expected and perfect red.

This product is very appealing as well.

My second pair of the Walker and this time I went with high tops. Beautiful, comfortable and great all around. I do size down 1/2 size, or wear my dress shoes size, and the fit is great. There is some loose grain in the leather, but I don't get caught up in that stuff.
Reviewer PTcasserlyPD4
These shoes are very good looking, only that are a lil bit tight, i use them with thin socks
Reviewer Brad McNeely
They fit perfect, really light
Reviewer David B Landon
These shoes are very stylish. I think they look great with jeans or with khakis. They are also pretty comfortable. I have only had them for a week, so I cannot attest to the durability, that is really my only concern. Since they are pretty cheap, I went ahead and bought a backup pair just in case!
Reviewer Jack Sindoni
Very good working shoes.

It is a little long. I typically wear a 13. But I have lost some weight, so that's probably it.
