Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: These shoes typically feel comfortable out of the box, but a few short walks will help the wool upper mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the wool. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized wool cleaner; avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Protection: Consider applying a protective spray specifically rated for wool fabrics to help repel water and stains.
