Just a great walking shoe for this old man. Easy on and off, a cushioned sole, and plenty wide. As reviewers stated, they tend to pick up rocks off our driveway.

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.

I got these light-up shoes for my husband to wear with a loud suit. They look fun!

I ordered these Alpine Swiss Stuart men's chunky sneakers. They fit him real well but he says there's not a lot of flexibility to them. Feel stiff. Maybe after awhile they'll have some give. I did a review on these months ago but didn't realize my pics in my tablet were malfunctioning and took my data too. So...I apologize for this delay. But hubby likes them and that's all that matters!

These are styled like oxfords but more casual cool. Great soles are comfortable and not bulkily heavy. You can brush off the suede with damp cloth. Perfect spring/summer shoe..good look w/jeans or shorts

Sketchers are my favorite! My husband and son destroy clothing and shoes on campouts and just regular activity. I know that these will last them. My husband loved the wide fit. He said he felt like he was walking in platform shoes at first, but likes the memory foam. I should have nabbed a pair for my son!
