Fragment Design x Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard Retro Low OG SP 'Sail Military Blue'

Reviewer M Ruffini

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.

My size is 9-9.5, I read it was big so I purchased the 8.5, but it is large. I had to sell it to a friend size 9.5. But they are pretty nice.

Reviewer Craig Williamson

Fits exactly as expected. Good deal.

These shoes fit great and are so comfy. They are a good shoe with jeans or khakis. The order was shipped quick and arrived fast, thanks

I usually go for new balance but these are very nice. I found a new favorite show.

I wanted to get a pair of old school Tigers for some time....like since the mid '70s. I was always leaning towards Mexico 66s, but I have to walk on cobblestones quite a lot and could see that they just wouldn't work for that. I then found out about the Corsair... I thought they were a ripoff of the Nike Cortez, but the Tigers were designed first in '69 when the Nike founders were working with Onitsuka Tiger, before they started their own company and split the sheets, taking the Cortez name.
Anyway, these are really comfortable and look terrific. I never see these out on the street. I did have to go up a 1/2 size because my feet are a little wide and these are a bit narrow.

My husband loves his sperrys. He buys a new pair every few months. The price on these is excellent and the color is great.

Brings back the 80s for me. Comfortable, good ankle support. White will get dirty quickly. I'm pleased with this purchased

I haven't owned shoes in years. Even in the coldest (okay chilliest) winter days here in FL I wore sandals. I needed a pair of shoes for an event and after seeing numerous TV commercials for Skechers wide fit shoes I took a shot and ordered these in a 12 4E. They're amazingly comfortable with a ton of room for my toes. They don't pinch or bind. I have a flat foot and was glad to find there isn't a high arch in these shoes and the memory foam insole (not removable sadly) really cushions your stride. The soles have nice traction and the uppers are sturdy but breathe nicely, on an 83° day when the rest of me was sweating my feet were surprisingly cool and comfortable. These really aren't a sneaker they're more like a lightweight walking/trail shoe. They're also attractive. Hopefully they're as durable as they are comfortable.
