FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running sports?
While they feature running technology, they are primarily designed as a lifestyle and everyday trainer rather than a professional racing shoe.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the leather and adhesive. Clean them by hand with a soft cloth and mild soap.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, the integrated ENCAP cushioning system provides balanced support and stability suitable for everyday activities.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the New Balance 574 comes with removable insoles, making it easy to clean them or swap them for custom orthotics.
Do these trainers run true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing; however, always refer to the specific UK size guide provided for the 574 series to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the top of the foot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a wider configuration, or ensure the tongue is centered properly before tightening.
The insoles are becoming uncomfortable or losing shape
Remove the inserts and allow them to air dry fully. If they are permanently deformed, they can be replaced with standard aftermarket cushioned inserts.
Outer leather material showing minor scuffs
Use a leather-safe cleaner and a matching color polish or a neutral leather conditioner to buff out and protect the scuffed areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your New Balance 574 trainers is simple. To ensure a proper fit, ensure there is about a thumb's width of space at the front of the shoe to allow for natural growth and movement. For daily care, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the leather and textile surfaces. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking. Because the insole is removable, you can take it out periodically to air it out or wash it separately if necessary. If you are using the shoes for sports, ensure the laces are snug but not tight enough to restrict circulation.
