I bought these for my 3 year old who is in a size 9 right now and these are way too big on him. Even with thick socks. But we love converse and this isn't his first pair. They do run about a size too large but I knew that and was anticipating him growing into them. The brand is perfect for a rough and tumble little boy! We got the elastic laces for them too so they're easy to slip on and off (even when he grows into them the rest of the way) which makes them even better!

I have a hard time finding shoes to fit . I've got small, wide feet so my shoes are either too short or too long. These fit great, heavy duty but very comfortable!

The shoes are really nice, the only bad thing (that’s why just 4 stars) is that it said “leather” and that’s why I bought them but are fabric. They are nice but will get dirty quickly, I was looking for leather shoes and not just leather shoelaces

This shoe suited me well for 3 month with fairly use. I used this shoes 10 hours per week and it served me well. The rubber sole really helped me from slipping in the kitchen area with wet surface. Nothing has been torn yet. I'm expecting this shoe will last me for a good 8 months.

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.

Very nice sneakers, color is vibrant and are the current fashion. My only complaint is they run a little large, I should have gotten a half size smaller.
Reviewer Kurt Frey
These are the best sneakers I have ever purchased. Well worth the price. The support is perfect, my feet have not felt this good in years.
Reviewer Lisa f
Great fit and very comfortable! I've tried several other top brand walking shoes and nothing else compares. Great shoes! I will buy them again!
Reviewer Suzanne Kincaid
great fit, comfortable, great for walking.
Reviewer M Balcerzak
Love the shoes! Good cushioning, fit foot well, which is often challenging due to having a narrow foot. Shoe doesn’t have a moveable tongue, and is a little heavier than comparable shoes, but an excellent value!
