FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the mix of suede and leather materials is not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid heavy rain and to use a protective water-repellent spray specifically for suede.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal sockliner can be removed if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.
What is the primary material of the shoe?
The sneaker is a combination of nylon, premium suede, and leather overlays.
Is this a limited edition shoe?
Yes, the Stray Rats x 574 is a collaborative effort, which often indicates limited production runs compared to standard New Balance releases.
How should I clean the nylon portions?
Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth to gently wipe the nylon areas, then allow them to air dry away from heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede surfaces
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently lift dirt without damaging the nap.
Creasing on leather panels
This is normal for genuine leather; keeping shoe trees inside the trainers when not in use helps maintain their original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance Stray Rats x 574 lasts, consider the following:
- Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid getting the suede wet, as it can stain or change texture.
- Leather Protection: Apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent cracking in the leather panels.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the vibrant green hues.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. It is recommended to use the size you typically wear in other New Balance 574 models for the best fit.
