Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 574 Women's Trainers (Model WL574XE2) are designed for women who prioritize a blend of heritage aesthetic and modern comfort for everyday use. These sneakers excel as versatile daily footwear, offering superior cushioning via ENCAP technology and a durable suede construction that works well for casual outings or light activity. A primary caveat to consider is that the suede upper requires regular care and protection from harsh weather conditions to maintain its texture and appearance over time.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 574 is based on a classic runner design, it is a lifestyle shoe intended for casual wear and light activity rather than long-distance athletic running.

How do I clean the animal print details?

Use a damp, soft cloth to gently wipe the area. Avoid scrubbing vigorously to prevent damaging the print finish.

Do these fit true to size?

The New Balance 574 generally fits true to size, but since they are suede, they may feel slightly snug initially and will soften and mold to your foot over time.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, you should never submerge suede trainers in a washing machine, as this will permanently damage the leather and the adhesives used in the construction.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the internal cushioning is designed to support the foot, but most models allow for the removal of the insole if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush or a soft-bristle toothbrush to gently brush the material in one direction to restore the nap.

Outer sole loses traction on wet surfaces

Check if the gum rubber tread has collected debris or mud; clean the sole with a soft brush and warm water to restore grip.

Fit feels too snug after a long day

Loosen the laces across the midfoot to allow for natural foot swelling, or consider re-lacing to relieve pressure on the top of the arch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best fit, ensure you try the shoes on with the socks you plan to wear most frequently, as New Balance sizing can vary slightly from other brands. Before your first wear, consider applying a suede-safe protective spray to help repel water and stains. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift dirt and maintain the nap of the material. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can discolor or stiffen the leather. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent fading.
