FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, the New Balance 574 trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I clean the 'Slate Grey White' colorway?
Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to clean minor dirt. For suede areas, use a specialized suede cleaner. Allow to air dry and avoid machine washing or drying.
What size should I order if I'm unsure?
Refer to the New Balance sizing guide for accurate measurements. It is generally recommended to order your usual shoe size, but consider that lacing allows for some adjustment.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While they can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it is advisable to wear waterproof footwear. Applying a protector spray can offer some water resistance.
What is the main advantage of the 574 series?
The 574 series is known for its iconic, timeless design that blends classic style with everyday comfort and durability, making it a versatile choice for casual wear.
Do these trainers offer arch support?
The New Balance 574 provides moderate support suitable for casual wear. For individuals requiring specialized arch support, aftermarket insoles can be used.
Troubleshooting
Fit feels too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, lace them more snugly. For a looser fit, loosen the laces. If the size is fundamentally incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Soles feel less cushioned over time.
The cushioning may naturally lessen with extensive wear. Ensure the insoles are clean and properly positioned. For significant wear, consider replacing the insoles.
Material appears worn or discolored.
Clean gently with appropriate cleaners for the material (e.g., suede cleaner for suede). Avoid harsh chemicals. Apply a protective spray to help prevent future discoloration and wear.
