Jordan Aj1 Low Men

Reviewer Kindra S Wilson

I needed shoes to walk on a treadmill. These shoes fit the bill. Well made and comfortable. I'm sure they would be fine for walking outside too.

Christmas gift for my son. He wears a size 15. He says they are very comfortable and really likes them. Thank you for carrying these shoes in larger sizes which are hard to find.

Comfortable shoes- nice air cushions!

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.

My husband hates shopping, especially for anything shoe or clothing related, so it proves difficult sometimes to find him the right goods, and still have him looking good/feeling good. He likes black, and has wide feet, so these were perfect, and he still feels like he can look decent when we go out. These were fine for their purpose, and a great deal on price. For those who have stubborn, hates to shop partners? These are the ones.

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

I like these shoes a lot. They are super light weight. They look good and feel good. I have a very wide foot. My predecessors to these shoes were almost as expensive, and I ended up "blowing out" the sides of both shoes because of my wide feet. There is a little bit of slop in these shoes, but I ordered them 1/2 size bigger to be able to wear 2 pairs of socks with these in the winter. With 2 pairs of socks, these are as close to perfect as I could hope for. I paid about $35 with prime. If these "blow out", I will report back, but I think they are going to be just fine.

These shoes help my back pain and relieve and relieved the stiffness.

These Brothers United luxury lace up leather men's sneakers are really nice! They're made with leather and have a padded foot bed, elevated rubber sole, and blunt arch support for comfort. They're designed in New York and handcrafted by shoe artisans in Brazil. Brazil is known worldwide for their quality shoes. Ordered these for my son and he loves them. Very nice sneakers and fashion-forward.
