Just a great walking shoe for this old man. Easy on and off, a cushioned sole, and plenty wide. As reviewers stated, they tend to pick up rocks off our driveway.

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.

Second pair. Very nice shoes

From 6 feet up it looks like a Detroit Lions shoe. You really need to know your branding to realize it’s puma.
Reviewer Erica J Villiotte
This is the THIRD pair of these bought for hubby. He is 87 now and still walks MILES daily and loves these shoes. He has a hand problem, so the velcro straps are absolutely the perfect thing for him. These are very smart looking as well as comfortable and functional. Highly recommended by us.

Reviewer Stephen Wagner
I absolutely love these sneakers. I bought these searching for comfort, as well as, style. As a bartender, I’m always on the lookout for a comfortable (all day) sneaker, as I’m on my feet long hours and these definitely provide that. Great cushioning, bounce, and style. I will say that Puma’s run about a 1/2- 1 size smaller than most brands. I can usually wear a 7-7 1/2 in men’s sneakers (9 in women’s) but after buying a 7 1/2 I had to exchange them for the 8 men’s.

These aldo fits snugs, so if you wear size 9.5 or 10, i would go with 10. These are great, gets alot of compliments
Reviewer L Mcandrews
These shoes are great. They look great, they fit great, and they wear great. They are casual, of course, but are not too casual. Yes, they have some arch support but not all that much really.
