This shoe was the solution to my foot pain and made working so much easier. Unfortunately they broke down pretty quickly but for the price this combined with gel insoles is essential for comfortable manual labor or jobs with lots of moving and standing.

I buy alot of stuff that I'm disappointed with... I really like these Sneeks.. 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 Arlene P Hubbard
Absolutely gorgeous shoes! The quality is simply unmatched. I mean, really! These are quality shoes with style! Every pair I buy - FRYE.
Reviewer Em Gallagher
A good pair of hiking boots, but not as good as 'Red Wing or Fyre boots'! I have found them to be somewhat , uncomfortable & prefer my more comfortable 'Combat Boots'!

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.

This is my second pair. These shoes are really comfortable and they held up for 2 years.

Purchased in 2021; now March 2022. The "leather" has started to wear and crack collecting dirt, the glue is separate from the sides in area. The lace holes dirty the laces. There's now a hole in one shoe at the bottom. All in all pretty great for a 30$ shoe

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.
