FAQs
Are New Balance 574s good for running?
While the 574 has hybrid roots, it is considered a lifestyle trainer. It is not designed for serious running and lacks the advanced cushioning tech required for high-impact activities.
How do I clean the suede on my 574s?
Use a dry suede brush to remove surface debris. For deeper cleaning, use specific suede-safe cleaning products and never submerge the shoes in water.
Do these shoes run narrow or wide?
The 574 is built on a wider last than typical performance racing shoes, making it generally more comfortable for those who require a bit more room.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is best to avoid wet weather. Suede is porous and can be damaged or permanently discolored by water and mud.
Is the 574 a unisex shoe?
Yes, the New Balance 574 is designed as a versatile, unisex model suitable for all adults.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The 574 typically fits true to size, but given the wider last, you should measure your foot and compare it to the standard UK sizing guide provided.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or flat
Use a soft-bristle brush to gently lift the nap of the suede material.
Visible water or salt stains
Use a specialized suede cleaning solution and a soft cloth, then allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Shoe feels too loose
Adjust the lacing pattern to be tighter across the midfoot or use a slightly thicker sock.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Widely recognized timeless design

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the 574 utilizes suede, maintaining the material is crucial for longevity. Avoid exposure to heavy rain or muddy conditions, as suede can stain or lose texture when saturated. For cleaning, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for localized marks. To ensure the best fit, pair these trainers with medium-thickness socks. Since the shoe is built on a wider last, it generally fits true to size, but those between sizes should consider trying a half-size down if they prefer a more locked-in feel.
