FAQs

Is the New Balance 574 a running shoe?

While it features a hybrid road/trail design, it is primarily categorized as an everyday lifestyle trainer rather than a technical performance running shoe.

How do I clean my leather New Balance 574s?

Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals and never put leather shoes in a dryer.

Does the 574 run true to size?

The 574 is built on a wider last, which many users find runs slightly roomier than typical narrow athletic silhouettes. If you are between sizes, consider trying your standard size first.

What is the difference between the 574 leather and suede versions?

The primary difference is the upper material; leather models are generally more water-resistant and easier to clean than suede, which requires specific brushes and sprays.

Are these shoes suitable for high-impact sports?

They are designed for comfort and casual, multi-purpose use, but they lack the specialized technical features required for high-impact sports like basketball or professional racing.

Troubleshooting

The leather upper looks dull or scuffed.

Use a high-quality leather conditioner or specialized cleaner to restore moisture and buff out minor scuffs.

The shoes feel too wide or loose.

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'heel lock' or 'runner's loop' to secure the midfoot more effectively.

Ensure your feet are dry before wearing and consider moisture-wicking socks to prevent sweat accumulation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent all-day comfort for casual wear
  • Versatile design suitable for road and light trail use
  • Durable construction ensures long-term wear
  • Classic, boundary-defying aesthetic

Setup, Compatibility & Care

As these trainers feature leather construction, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance and structural integrity. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the leather and adhesive bonds. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth or a dedicated leather-safe cleaning solution to wipe away dirt. For optimal comfort, ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the wider last of the 574 may feel different compared to narrow racing trainers. Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent material stiffening.
