The first time I saw the "Backpack" line of shoes from New Balance, I knew that I'd one day be adding a pair to my collections of 574's. Nylon uppers just seems like a fantastic idea, since nylon is so easy to clean and keep clean. I liked the idea of being able to get them dirty, knowing that they'll clean up better then other 574's. Because of this, I might even wear them when I normally wouldn't want to get my shoes dirty.
I haven't had them long enough to make that decision, or know exactly how well they'll clean up, but there is something else different about them that immediately caught my attention. Ever since New Balance changed the manufacturing process for the 574's, I think they've been smaller and less comfortable then versions before that time. I just purchased another pair of 574's a couple of weeks back and noticed this immediately when putting them on, as I always do with a new pair of 574's nowadays.
This pair, however, feels more like the older 574's, because they're so comfortable. My first thought was that maybe they made them like the old ones, but after comparing them to numerous other pairs I have, both old and new, I don't think that's it. The soles still match the newer version (i.e. they're more narrow), but still, I'm pretty sure they have more toe room in the uppers, because they both look and feel as if they do.
I've been a little disappointed with every pair I've purchased, since they changed the manufacturing process, because they're just not as comfortable as they used to be. For whatever reason, these, however, seem closer to what I remember a new pair feeling like and that has me really happy. They are very comfortable shoes.

I got these for my daughter,she had been eyeballing them for a while.Every time we went to the mall she would ask for them,so I checked Amazon.As expected,they had them and at a lower price,which is why I shop here.Got them a few days later and everyone is happy now.

I got a great deal on these shoes that more than makes up for them being an off brand. They fit great, light weight and good for summer time as they're really breathable. Love the lacing system, just twist the knob to tighten and pull it out to loosen. Good shoes, even better deal!

My Husband was looking for a pair of shoes that didn't have laces. I suggested these shoes, as I have been buying this brand for about ten years and have always been satisfied. He keeps saying how much he likes these shoes. They are very comfortable and look good too. I highly recommend this product.

I love it that these shoes are exactly what my husband has been wearing for at least 5 years. I looked everywhere in stores but only found them here. They are perfect and fit so well.
