FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the 574's design?
The 574's primary benefit is its unassuming versatility, making it a reliable and comfortable shoe for a wide range of everyday activities rather than excelling at one specific function.
How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?
Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner designed for children's footwear, testing it on a small, hidden area first.
Are these suitable for sports activities?
The 574s are suitable for general active play and light sports due to their durable construction and good traction. However, they are not designed for high-impact or specialized athletic performance.
What does 'hybrid road/trail' design mean?
It means the shoe is built to perform well on both paved surfaces (road) and less even terrain (trail), offering a balanced blend of stability and comfort.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Refer to the New Balance sizing guide and measure your child's foot length. Ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe is too large.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially those with leather components, as it can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure. Spot cleaning and air drying are preferred.
What materials are used in the trainers?
The trainers feature uppers made of 74% leather, 14% other materials, and 12% textile. The lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure laces are tied using a secure knot. Consider double-knotting if they continue to loosen.
Discoloration on leather.
Clean with a damp cloth and a suitable leather cleaner. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles appear dirty.
Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a soft brush with mild soap can be used, then wiped clean.
