FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, because they feature suede materials, machine washing can cause permanent damage to the texture and color. Use professional suede cleaning products instead.

Is the 574 Core good for wide feet?

Yes, the 574 series is known for having a wider last than many other New Balance racing models, making them a great choice for children who need more room.

Can these be used for running sports?

While they are comfortable and durable, they are primarily lifestyle trainers. For competitive track or field sports, consider a dedicated athletic performance model.

How do I determine the right size for my child?

We recommend measuring your child's feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest and ensuring there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe.

What is the difference between the 574 Core and other series?

The 574 is a hybrid design built for versatility and ruggedness, whereas other series may be specialized for pure road running or specific fashion trends.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dusty after wear

Use a soft suede brush or a dry cloth to gently lift the nap of the suede and remove settled dust.

Laces constantly coming untied

Consider using a double-knot technique or replacing the laces with elastic "no-tie" laces for younger children who struggle with traditional tying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, recognizable aesthetic suitable for any casual occasion
  • Durable materials designed to handle active child play
  • Wider fit accommodates growing feet comfortably
  • Balanced design works well on both pavement and light trails

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful cleaning to maintain appearance
  • Not intended for high-performance athletic sports
  • Limited water resistance compared to synthetic materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure the child is wearing the type of socks they intend to use daily when trying the shoes on. To maintain the appearance of the suede upper, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each wear. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the suede texture. If you notice staining, use a specialized suede cleaner rather than submerging the shoes in water or placing them in a washing machine.
