FAQs

Are the New Balance 57/40s good for running?

The 57/40 series is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not engineered for high-performance running and may lack the specific support and cushioning required for that activity.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a comfortable amount of space at the toe (about a thumb's width) and that the heel doesn't slip. The midfoot should feel snug but not tight. It's recommended to try them on at the end of the day when feet are slightly larger.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

These sneakers are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to rain or puddles is not recommended as it can damage the materials and affect comfort.

What makes the 57/40 design unique?

The 57/40 features an 'overbranding' aesthetic and a distinct, enlarged N logo. It also incorporates elements inspired by both the classic 574 and the modern 57/40 models, creating a unique blend of heritage and contemporary design with a slightly bulkier sole.

How should I clean the Marblehead Sea Salt colorway?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains on the grey material, a mild soap and water mixture can be applied carefully. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for average foot widths. If you have significantly wide feet, it's advisable to check for specific wide-fit options or try them on to ensure comfort, as the unique silhouette might not accommodate wider feet perfectly in a standard size.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone easily

Ensure you are tying a secure knot. Consider using the 'double knot' method or replacing laces with ones that offer better grip.

Discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase duration. Ensure you have the correct size and width.

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between parts. Check if the tongue is rubbing against the inner lining or if the insole is misplaced. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Material appears discolored

This might be due to dirt or sun exposure. Follow the care instructions for cleaning. Protect from prolonged direct sunlight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These sneakers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure laces are tied to your desired comfort and security level before use.

Compatibility:

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the upper. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  • Suede/Nubuck: If applicable to specific parts of the shoe, use a specialized suede brush and cleaner.
  • Insoles: Remove insoles for separate cleaning if needed, allowing them to dry completely before reinserting.
