Is the 574 Core good for walking all day?

Yes. The cushioned ENCAP midsole and padded collar make it a common pick for errands, travel and standing shifts. It is heavier than a knit walking shoe, so very long days may suit a lighter option.

How does the 574 Core fit compared with other New Balance shoes?

It uses the classic 574 last, which is wider and more supportive than New Balance's slim lifestyle models. Buyers with wide feet often find it comfortable; those between sizes may want to size up.

Can I run in the 574 Core?

It was originally a hybrid road and trail shoe, but the current version is a lifestyle sneaker. It works for light activity, not for regular running or training.

How does it compare with the Nike Air Force 1 or Adidas Samba?

The 574 is softer and roomier than the Air Force 1, which is heavier and stiffer, and more cushioned than the flat-soled Samba. It trades some sleekness for comfort.

Is the 574 Core good for wide feet?

The wider last gives more room than many lifestyle sneakers, and wide sizes are offered. Try your usual New Balance size first.

What is the upper made of?

Suede and mesh, the combination that has defined the 574 for decades. It is durable but warmer than an all-mesh shoe.
