Zoom Kobe 6 Protro 'Reverse Grinch' 'Imperial Purple'

Reviewer Sandra L Wisecup

This is a nice sneaker with plenty of cushion in the sole.
Consider ordering a half size bigger as it tends to run a little small.

My husband really like this shoe

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.

These shoes are very comfortable. They can be worn with slacks for work in relaxed work place or more casual clothes. They will be great for travel shoes. I will definitely continue to buy these when needed.

Reviewer J C Schenk

Very comfortable shoes. They seem to get more comfortable each time you wear them. Only issue is that you will need socks that cover your heel as the back of the shoe will rub it raw.

Reviewer Kathy Krueger

They’re Chucks! You cannot go wrong. Mine fit as expected, but I know my shoe size for this style since I have been wearing them for decades. If you don’t know your size, go to a store and try them on. Then come back to amazon if the price is right!

This is my second pair of Lisbon shoes — I also have the brown ones.

Unfortunately I had to order three pairs of the brown ones before I got a pair that didn't have wrinkles or lumps along the side of the footbed. Vivobarefoot appear to have worked out the quality control issues, because this black pair is really comfy, with no lumps or deviations in the footbed.

The shoes appear quite durable, are comfortable for a mile or two of walking, and take a shine well.

My grandson loves these shoes! He works in the kitchen and they have to wear slip resistant and oil resistant shoes. Since he is on his feet all day and is flat-footed - these work really well for him.

Reviewer Lerey Bishop

My husband loves these shoes. They are perfect for everyday wear, but they don't stand up real well. He gets anywhere from 6 months to a year of hard ranch wear out of them. He loves the memory foam insole.

I find this brand width is short for me. length is just right.
