FAQs

Are the New Balance 574 trainers suitable for running?

The 574 features a hybrid road/trail design intended for versatile wear. While comfortable for general use and light activity, they are not specifically designed as high-performance running shoes. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the suede and mesh parts?

For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove dirt and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. For mesh, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Always air dry and avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.

What is the primary benefit of the 574's design?

The primary benefit is its unassuming versatility. It was built to be a reliable shoe that performs well in many different situations, making it a comfortable and durable choice for everyday wear.

Are these trainers available in different widths?

The 574 was originally built on a wider last than previous narrow racing silhouettes. While specific width options can vary by release, the design generally offers a more accommodating fit.

How durable are the New Balance 574 trainers?

The trainers are known for their rugged and durable construction, utilizing materials like suede and mesh that are chosen for their longevity in everyday use.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Suede can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's advisable to use a suede protector spray and avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their condition.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If the material is suede, professional stretching might be an option.

Suede material showing wear or stains

Use a suede eraser for minor marks and a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully. Protect with a suede protector spray.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. New Balance offers replacement laces, or you can find suitable alternatives at most shoe stores.

Inconsistent comfort over time

Check the insoles for wear and consider replacing them with new insoles for added cushioning and support. Ensure the shoes are properly tied for optimal fit.
