Great casual shoe. Runs pretty true to size.

I continually buy the Superstars. They have been one of my favorite shoes since I was teenager. I have to wear an ankle brace with metal slats frequently and it is hard to find shoes that will fit it. I usually buy all of my shoes 1/2 to 1 size too big. My feet are different sizes as well, due to multiple surgeries on one ankle. I have never had an issue with the Superstar. They are very comfortable, they last, and they fit my brace. Would 100% recommend.

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.

This is my husband’s second pair. He’s on his feet teaching and these help his pad his feet.

Love the shoes, but first pair very narrow and had to be returned. My husband's feet are average to slightly narrow width. Had to get a full size larger.
Reviewer Rathskeller
Item looked great upon receipt, however, as my son wore them for about 3 weeks they are wearing out quickly. It may be my son or the shoes. Item arrived on time and exactly as pictured.

A very nice looking shoes. The color is very bright and attractive. The medium size is a bit tight across the instep. It was still a great price for a pair of Mephisto shoes.
