FAQs
What makes the 574 a hybrid shoe?
The 574 is considered a hybrid because it was originally designed with features suitable for both road running and light trail use, built on a wider base than typical racing shoes of its era.
How do I know if I should order a size up?
The product description and many user reviews indicate that the New Balance 574 model often runs small. It is generally recommended to order half to a full size larger than your typical shoe size for the best fit.
Are these shoes suitable for intense athletic training?
The 574 is primarily designed for everyday wear, comfort, and light activity. For high-impact sports or specialized athletic training, shoes with more specific performance features might be more appropriate.
What does 'ENCAP midsole cushioning' mean?
ENCAP refers to the core cushioning technology that combines a soft foam center with a durable, supportive polyurethane rim. This offers a balance of cushioning and stability for all-day wear.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While the rubber outsole provides some grip, these trainers are not waterproof. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and affect the materials.
What types of outfits do these trainers go well with?
The iconic and versatile design of the 574 makes them suitable for a wide range of casual outfits, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and athleisure wear.
How much recycled content is in these shoes?
The mesh in the vamp, collar, and tongue is made from 100% recycled polyester, and the rubber outsole contains 5% recycled rubber. The midsole foam also includes approximately 3% bio-based content from renewable sources.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or small.
As this model runs small, consider ordering a size up for a more comfortable fit. If already purchased, ensure they are worn in gently or consider an exchange if possible.
Soles are slippery on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, grip may be reduced on very wet or slick surfaces. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal performance.
Discoloration of the pink material.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause colors to fade. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and dry away from heat.
