FAQs
Are the New Balance 574 trainers good for running?
The 574 is designed as a versatile casual trainer with a hybrid road/trail construction, offering comfort and durability for everyday wear. They are not optimized for high-performance running or athletic training.
How do I clean the suede and mesh upper?
Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a damp cloth and a specialized suede cleaner. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from heat.
What is the main benefit of the 574's design?
The primary benefit is its unpretentious versatility, combining a comfortable fit with a durable hybrid road/trail design that makes it suitable for a wide range of everyday activities and styles.
Do these trainers come in different widths?
The 574 is built on a wider last than previous narrow running silhouettes, offering a more accommodating fit. Specific width options may vary by retailer and availability.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a combination of durable suede and breathable mesh.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the suede and mesh offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It's advisable to treat them with a water-repellent spray and avoid heavy rain or puddles to maintain their condition.
What is the heel height of the 574 trainers?
The heel height is flat, contributing to the overall stability and comfort of the shoe for casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have correctly sized the shoes. If they are new, the suede and mesh may need a short break-in period. Consider wearing them with thinner socks initially.
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dirt, try a specialized suede cleaner or eraser, following product instructions carefully.
Cushioning feels less effective over time
The EVA cushioning is designed for prolonged comfort but will naturally wear down with extensive use. For significantly degraded cushioning, replacement may be considered, though the shoe's overall structure is durable.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace the laces with a new pair. Standard shoelaces of a similar length and material can be used.
