Full details
The New Balance 57/40 is an ideal sneaker for adults seeking a blend of heritage style and modern comfort for everyday wear. By reimagining the classic 574 silhouette with bold 80s and 90s design inspirations, it provides a contemporary aesthetic suitable for casual rotation, though its bulkier profile may not appeal to those who prefer minimalist or lightweight performance running shoes.

FAQs
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, the 57/40 is a lifestyle sneaker designed for casual walking and daily wear, not for athletic performance or distance running.
Does the size 6 UK fit true to size?
Yes, New Balance sizing is generally consistent with standard UK adult sizing, though individual foot shape may impact fit.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers as this can damage the premium materials and adhesives.
What materials are used in the construction?
The 57/40 utilizes a mix of premium leather and synthetic materials to achieve its distinct look and durability.
Are these shoes unisex?
While some variants are gender-specific, the 57/40 design philosophy is widely considered unisex in aesthetic appeal.
How do I protect the grey colour from fading?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and consider applying a sneaker-safe water and stain repellent spray upon purchase.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
This is normal for leather and synthetic hybrid materials; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Midsole appears dirty
Use a specialized sneaker foam cleaner and a soft brush to gently scrub the midsole sidewalls.
Foot feels slightly tight
Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preference, as the cushioned interior may feel snug initially before the foam settles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 57/40 shoes stay in top condition, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and debris after use.
- Stains: For minor spots, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth; avoid fully submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
- Fit: This model fits true to size for most adults, though if you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider this when selecting your specific UK size.
