FAQs
Are the New Balance 574 good for running?
While originally derived from performance roots, the current 574 model is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer and is not recommended for dedicated running or high-impact training.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The 574 fits true to standard UK sizing. If you typically wear a size 9, the UK 9 should offer the correct fit.
Can I put my 574s in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the structural integrity of the shoe. Use hand-cleaning methods only.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the New Balance 574 is designed as a unisex shoe, providing a versatile fit for all adults.
What materials are used in these shoes?
The construction typically features a mix of durable leather and high-quality synthetics, designed for longevity and style.
How do I maintain the grey and white colour?
Regularly brush off loose dirt and use a protective spray designed for sneakers to create a barrier against stains and moisture.
Troubleshooting
The trainers feel too tight after purchase
Ensure you are using thin performance socks during the break-in period and check that the laces are adjusted to your specific midfoot width.
Scuff marks appearing on the exterior
Use a specialized suede or leather cleaning brush to gently remove surface scuffs and restore the material nap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Breaking In: New leather and synthetic trainers often feel stiff initially; wear them for short intervals indoors to allow the material to contour to your foot shape.
- Sizing: These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to wear your usual size, though those with wider feet might consider verifying their measurement.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher stains on the leather or synthetic portions, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material discolouration or degradation of the sole.
