FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, the leather upper and specialized midsole components should not be machine washed. Clean them by hand with a damp cloth.
Does the shoe provide good arch support?
Yes, the integration of ENCAP midsole technology provides a supportive rim that helps maintain foot stability.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
The leather is durable, but it is not fully waterproof. It will withstand light splashes but should be protected from heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert orthotics or replace them if they wear out.
How do I ensure the right fit?
Measure the child's foot while they are standing and ensure there is roughly 1cm of space at the front for comfort and growth.
Troubleshooting
Straps losing grip strength
Use a small brush or tweezers to remove lint and debris from the hook-and-loop fabric to restore stickiness.
Leather showing scuffs
Apply a mild leather conditioner or a matching cream polish to buff out minor surface abrasions.
Foot odor after heavy use
Remove the insoles to air out and use an odor-neutralizing spray designed for footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the 574 trainers, wipe the leather exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt after each use. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or placing them in a dryer, as this can degrade the leather and the adhesives holding the sole. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators. For sizing, ensure a thumb-width of space between the big toe and the end of the shoe to allow for natural growth and movement.
