5.0 out of 5 stars Long-Lasting Walking Shoe, Good for Most Rainy Days

Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2018

Size: 9Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I'm a big guy, and I walk a lot. I've walked through many, many pairs of shoes. Whatever they have for soles on these shoes, they should use it on all their styles, 'cause it lasts the best of anything I've tried. I've read other folks' bad reviews, and I guess they had a bad experience, and that's legit, but I've found these not only long-lasting on the sole, but also on the upper. And at the top for comfort. I do my walking in Seattle, so water resistant in a pair of walking shoes is vital. Even though they are a pretty open design, they are not bad: fine in light to moderate rain, not so fine in hard rain. Yes, they do come untied pretty easily, but double-knotting helps. The heel tends to break down and get lumpy if you stuff your foot in, so a shoehorn or some other care in this regard is strongly suggested.

They are not cheap, but I've found them to be a great value. I'm about to buy a new pair. My old ones are still OK, but I'm afraid that Rockport will discontinue them for fashion's sake, and I want to make sure I have a second pair standing by.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Shoes

These are one of the best pairs of shoes I have ever owned; with the others being Rockport also. They felt very comfortable right out of the box with no need to "break them in". My work requires me to be on my feet for eight hours a day and I was very concerned that I might have problems the first few days of wearing them; however, I was surprised to find that they caused no problems at all from the very first day. The EE width works very well for me as I need that extra width in order to not bind my feet. I would recommend this shoe for anyone needing to be on their feet for extended lengths of time. I'm also impressed with the look and feel of the leather. The overall quality of the Rockford shoe is excellent.

If you're trying to get ALL the girls ... These are the shoes for you.

Not only do they have the classic look of a New Balance, but the soft and spongy soles keep you bouncing with a gait generally only carried by cold-blooded pimps.

If you wanna spread your bloodline throughout your town with reckless abandon ... BUY NOW!!!

I buy at least two pairs of these a year. They to me are really the perfect sneaker, I don't know much else to say. New Balance 574 is sort of like a cult band like the Grateful Dead, where people who are really into the Grateful Dead are obsessed with them. New Balance 574 people are sort of like that, we tend to be really about this sneaker and find all others just don't measure up. They feel great, look great, and last. A pair of these typically lasts me a good 6-8 months of hard daily use. The best sneaker in the world what else can I say!

4.0 out of 5 stars Width is NOT what it purports to be

Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2019

Size: 14 X-WideColor: Nimbus Cloud/Nimbus CloudVerified Purchase

I initially ordered this shoe a few weeks ago, and they seemed to be well made for the price, except for a lack of padding in the tongue. One thing I liked about the shoe is that a short extension of the leatherette overlaps the area where the end of the big toe is, which in many other tennis shoes is covered by the shoe mesh. In some of my other sneakers the mesh in that spot has split, which the design of this shoe should prevent.

Now for the not so good. I had previously noted that some reviewers had complained that the shoe is narrower than what the width is labeled. I normally take a 14W shoe and decided to take a chance and ordered that size in this shoe. At first the shoes seemed to be OK for the daily walks I have been taking. However, after a few weeks of walking I came to be aware of my toes being cramped. Otherwise being satisfied with the shoe, I decided to order the same shoe in 14-X wide, figuring that would solve the problem.

The shoes came yesterday, but, even though the label on the shoe says 4E. they looked to be the same size as the other ones I had. which had 2E on the label. To make sure of that, I placed one of the new shoes sole-to-sole to match with one of the other shoes and they were EXACTLY the same width.

Perhaps the problem is with the manufacturer, which is located in Vietnam, surreptitiously cutting corners to save their costs. Nevertheless, New Balance should have better quality control to make sure about what is being put out in their name.

[Edit. I might be wrong about what I said concerning the difference between wide and extra wide. I order a pair of the NB 877 wide, which do have a wide toe box. I found they fit well in the toes, but perhaps a bit snug. Since they were not expensive, I ordered a pair of the extra wide. I found that the sole to sole measurement between the wide and the extra wide was the same BUT the uppers in the extra wide, even visually WERE wider. That got me to thinking that they might have done the same for the 574v2. I was going only by the sole to sole measurement on those and did not actually try wearing them long enough to make a fit determination.

In any case, I am returning the pair I just received.
