Best Sneeks ever
Reviewer Eric Stikes
Would be 5 stars if they had more size options. They are super comfortable and seem to be well made. Will update if they don’t last. I use them for basic strength workouts and on the stair climber. Close to being bare foot.
I wear a size 13 sneaker and 12 Wide for leather shoes. The XL is slightly too big for me and the L is slightly too small.

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.
Reviewer Dilpreet Singh
Great shoes. This is my second pair, they are so comfortable.
Reviewer Margaret Garone
These are as snappy and well-made as Vans for half the price. I've worn boating slip-ons since I was a little kid, and these are as good or better than most of the brand-name leaders. Very satisfied, will buy again once I wear these out.
Reviewer rihga
great shoes just had to return because were a little big and wide.

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.

Cute. I wear 8.5, bought an 8.5, and it fits perfectly

My husband hates shopping, especially for anything shoe or clothing related, so it proves difficult sometimes to find him the right goods, and still have him looking good/feeling good. He likes black, and has wide feet, so these were perfect, and he still feels like he can look decent when we go out. These were fine for their purpose, and a great deal on price. For those who have stubborn, hates to shop partners? These are the ones.
