FAQs
Is the New Balance 574 considered a running shoe?
While the 574 has roots in running heritage, current models are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual everyday wear.
How do I know if the 9.5 size is right for me?
New Balance 574 sizing is generally consistent with standard adult UK sizing; if you typically wear a 9.5 in other casual sneakers, this size should be a direct fit.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the leather and compromise the adhesive bonds holding the shoe together. Always use hand-cleaning methods.
What is the primary material used in this model?
This specific variant features a high-quality leather upper, providing a premium look and increased durability.
Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a leather-safe water repellent spray if you intend to wear them in light rain.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuffs
Use a leather conditioner or cream that matches the red pigment to buff out light scuffs and restore the finish.
Shoes feel tight after long periods
Feet naturally swell throughout the day; try loosening the laces during the afternoon or ensuring you are wearing appropriate thickness socks.
Creasing at the toe box
Leather creasing is a natural characteristic of the material. Using shoe trees when not wearing the shoes will help minimize deep set-in creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since these feature leather, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can crack or deform the leather.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place. Using cedar shoe trees can help maintain the shape of the trainer and manage interior moisture.
- Compatibility: The 9.5 size fits true to standard adult sizing. Pair them with denim, chinos, or athletic joggers to capitalize on their versatile design.
