Unfortunately, New Balance doesn't make the 575 shoe anymore so...

I bought these 622 shoes as a replacement . First, they are very nice looking (I love the pink trim!) and give you a little extra height when wearing them. =) But they are just not as comfortable out of the box as the 575s. These are a much stiffer shoe, and I'm still breaking them in, something I never had to do with the 575s. That being said, I can wear these shoes longer and they are much more comfortable than the pair of Reebok Easy Tone shoes I also bought recently.

One other minor detail I don't care for in the 622 is the width of the shoe tongue. I wish it was just a wee bit  wider for better coverage when lacing up the shoes.

Once I get these broken in, I'm hoping the 622s will become my new NB favorites.
