I got them for 97€ on sale! They are very comfortable (my driver wears 44.5 and I got them in size 45), they seem to be of good quality construction and have a high sole. I feel like their sole is a bit better than other sports shoes I had for this job, but nothing significant to say wow. I got them for everyday use at work and for walking on strolls, not for sports. They are quite stylish. I believe they will withstand the test of time. It's still early and I take care of them... in about 3 months we'll see. Time will tell... If they pass the durability test, I will also get the simple 574 in black. First time with New Balance...
