FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede shoes as it can ruin the material and the shoe's structure. Use professional suede cleaning products instead.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable, which allows for easier cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotic inserts if needed.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe while they are standing and refer to the standard UK children's sizing chart provided by the manufacturer.
Can these be worn in the rain?
While the rubber sole provides grip, the suede upper can become damaged or stained by heavy rain. It is best to avoid wet conditions or use a strong protective spray.
What age group are these for?
The New Balance 574 children's series is designed for school-aged kids, with sizing options ranging from toddler to older youth.
Troubleshooting
Touch 'n' close fastening losing grip
Use a pair of tweezers or a small comb to remove lint, hair, or debris that may have collected in the hook-and-loop mechanism.
Visible scuff marks on suede
Use a dedicated suede eraser to gently rub the scuffed area, which helps lift the nap and remove surface blemishes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Treat the suede uppers with a water and stain repellent spray before the first use.
- Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris. Avoid submerging the shoes in water as this can damage the suede texture.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit suitable for most children; if the fit is too tight, remove the insole temporarily to check sizing or use thin socks to improve comfort.
