Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 574 is designed for adults seeking a versatile, everyday sneaker that bridges the gap between casual wear and rugged durability. Its primary benefit is a reliable, comfortable fit built on a wider last, making it suitable for a variety of foot shapes and daily activities. One caveat to consider is that the suede material requires careful cleaning and is less suited for heavy rain or muddy terrain compared to synthetic performance footwear.

FAQs

Are the New Balance 574 shoes waterproof?

No, they are primarily made of suede and are not waterproof. We recommend using a water-repellent spray for light protection against moisture.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 574 is designed as a unisex model.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature a road-trail hybrid design, they are best suited for walking, daily wear, and light activity rather than intensive athletic training.

How do I maintain the suede material?

Keep the shoes dry and clean them using a dedicated suede brush. Avoid excessive moisture and heat.

Does the wider last mean I should size down?

Generally, it is best to order your standard size, but the wider last may feel more spacious than your typical narrow-profile athletic sneakers.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or dust on the suede

Use a soft-bristled suede brush or a dry sponge to gently wipe the material in the direction of the nap.

Shoes feel too loose

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a runner's loop or consider using a thin, moisture-wicking insole to take up extra space.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are built on a wider last, providing a roomier fit. If you are accustomed to very narrow racing silhouettes, ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the suede texture and colour.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. Use a shoe tree or stuffed paper to maintain their shape when not in use.
  4. Protection: Apply a suede-safe water repellent spray to protect against light moisture and stains if you plan to wear them in unpredictable weather.
