FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives. Please clean by hand using a damp cloth.
Does the elastic lace system need adjustment?
The elastic laces are typically pre-set for a comfortable fit; they are designed to stretch so you shouldn't need to manually adjust them.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The 578v1 features a standard width, but the adjustable strap provides some flexibility in accommodating different foot volumes.
Can I use leather conditioner on these?
Yes, using a light leather conditioner periodically can help keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
What is the best way to dry them if they get wet?
Stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area. Do not place them on radiators.
Troubleshooting
Velcro strap losing stickiness
Use a pair of tweezers to remove any lint or debris caught in the velcro hooks.
Persistent scuff marks on leather
Apply a small amount of non-abrasive leather cleaner or a magic eraser dampened with water to gently buff the scuffed area.
Shoes feel tight after a growth spurt
Check if the elastic laces are pulled too tight; if the fit remains uncomfortable, the shoe may be outgrown and should be replaced.

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 578v1 trainers, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth after every use to prevent dirt buildup.
