FAQs
Is the New Balance 57/40 suitable for running?
No, this is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual wear, not for athletic running.
How does the sizing compare to the 574?
The 57/40 generally fits true to size, similar to other models in the New Balance 57 series.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
We do not recommend machine washing, as the leather material can be damaged by water and tumbling.
Does the leather require waterproofing?
While not required, applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray can help protect the material from light rain.
Are there different colorways available?
Yes, the 57/40 series comes in various color combinations, including grey, purple, and pink accents.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dry or scuffed
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and buff out minor scuffs with a soft cloth.
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Ensure the laces are tightened appropriately; if issues persist, consider adding a supportive insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 57/40 sneakers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the leather surface.
- Stain Removal: For tougher spots, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
- Rotation: Allow the shoes to air out for 24 hours between heavy wears to maintain internal hygiene and material integrity.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adult UK sizing; however, since they are leather-based, they may require a short "break-in" period to mold perfectly to your foot shape.
