FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 574 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While they offer comfort for walking, they may not provide the specific support and cushioning required for serious running activities.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first and allow the shoes to air dry completely.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, the sole construction, and the overall shape of the sneaker.
What is the best way to store these sneakers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing when they are not being worn.
Do these sneakers come in other colors or materials?
Yes, the New Balance 574 series is available in a variety of colorways and material combinations, including suede and different color options.
Are these waterproof?
These sneakers are not designed to be waterproof. While the leather offers some resistance to light moisture, they are not suitable for heavy rain or wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing significantly
This is natural with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize excessive creasing. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
Slight color transfer from leather
This can occur with new leather. Allow the shoes to air out. Using a leather protectant spray can help seal the color. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored clothing or surfaces until minimal transfer occurs.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
While designed to be non-slip, some surfaces (e.g., wet polished floors) can still be challenging. Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris for optimal traction.
