Review New Balance ML574 Nubuck Sneaker
The Gazelle is a "classic" shoe from Adidas, that has been so popular, it has been around since the late 60s. I have the Spy/Black version and am very happy with them.
The treads on the bottom of the shoe are essentially flat with a pattern of small, indented hexagons underneath (nothing fancy). This does not give you a lot of traction compared to regular athletic shoes. The relatively low amount of traction makes these shoes bad for outdoor running or other sports that are hard on your shoes (I started to play some outdoor tennis in my pair, and noticed that the rough tennis court was gradually starting to grind the sole off).
The outside is suede, which obviously means it's best not to wear these shoes when your feet will be getting wet. The stripes are leather and pretty typical. The tongue is long and thin, and bothered me at first, until I kept it moved to the side. The shoelaces are pretty standard and come untied about as often as to be expected (more often than those rounded shoe strings).
That's about all I can think of for these shoes. I think they are a superb buy since they come in a great 7 different colors, are not too pricey, and have a look that is ultra-stylin' !

I have owned a few pairs of New Balance 574's and I can honestly say they are always my favorite shoes. All of my previous pairs that I have bought were made in the USA, this pair is made in Vietnam. It is still a well made shoe and the quality of the product seems no different than the ones made in the US. Every pair has lasted me a couple years so ill see how these hold up. I love the look of the nubuck, especially in grey, but the shoes does take longer to break in because the leather is stiffer than the standard suede/mesh shoe. Other than that I have no complaints. Can't beat it for the price.
I have been wearing this pair for a year now and they have held up well. They are comfortable and look nice. I only buy new balance. I usually buy the suede, but the Nubuck pair definitely lasts longer, as the suede doesn't get matted down or dirty. Looks almost as good, as well.
a really nice shoe great fit. Firm when i first put them on but softened quickly and is a very comfy casual shoe cannot complain
