FAQs
What is the main benefit of the ENCAP midsole?
The ENCAP midsole provides a core of lightweight EVA foam surrounded by a durable polyurethane rim, offering both cushioning and support for extended wear.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
The sneaker should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box. Your heel should not slip excessively when walking. It's recommended to try them on or consult the brand's sizing chart.
Can these sneakers be worn in wet conditions?
While the shoes offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Suede is particularly susceptible to water damage and staining. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 574 is designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker, not for high-performance running. For running, it is recommended to use shoes specifically designed for that activity.
How often should I clean my 574s?
Clean your sneakers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular spot cleaning and proper storage will help maintain their condition.
What does "Off White Grey" refer to?
This refers to the colorway of the sneaker, featuring off-white and grey tones on the mesh and suede upper.
Troubleshooting
Suede discoloration or staining
Use a suede eraser for light marks. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
Fit feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing pattern. If the issue persists, ensure you have the correct size. Consider using thicker or thinner socks to slightly alter the fit.
Soles appear dirty
Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
