FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 57/40 are primarily designed as lifestyle and casual wear sneakers, inspired by running shoe heritage. While they offer comfort for walking and general daily activities, they are not optimized for serious running or high-impact athletic performance.
How do I clean the 'Sea Salt' color without damaging the material?
For the 'Sea Salt' color, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water for spot cleaning. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
What is the main difference between the 57/40 and other New Balance series?
The 57/40 series combines a classic 574 outsole with a larger, more modern '70s-inspired upper. It features exaggerated proportions and a dual-layer N logo, distinguishing it from other heritage-inspired models.
Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?
While the shoes offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended, as it can affect the material and potentially cause color transfer.
What does 'Sea Salt' refer to in the color name?
'Sea Salt' is the colorway name, typically indicating a light, off-white or very pale beige shade, reminiscent of the color of sea salt.
Is this a unisex model?
The product information specifies these are 'Male' sneakers, designed with men's sizing. However, many New Balance models have a unisex appeal, and individuals may choose to wear them regardless of gender if the fit and style are suitable.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing to find a more secure and comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider the specific fit characteristics of the 57/40 model and consult sizing guides for future purchases.
Discoloration or scuffs on the 'Sea Salt' color.
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, use a specialized shoe cleaner and a soft brush. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Slight odor after wear.
Remove insoles and allow shoes to air out completely. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or insert. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
