FAQs

What makes this collaboration special?

This collaboration merges New Balance's iconic 574 Legacy silhouette with Stone Island's renowned design ethos and material research. It features unique branding and premium materials not found on standard models.

How do I clean the pig suede sections?

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner sparingly with a soft cloth, then brush to restore the nap after drying.

Are these sneakers good for running?

These sneakers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and support for daily activities. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running.

What is the material of the 'N' logo?

The 'N' logo on the side is made of a rubberized material.

Do the reflective panels work in all lighting conditions?

The reflective 3M panels are designed to enhance visibility primarily in low-light or dark conditions when direct light hits them. They will not be actively reflective in bright daylight.

What is the primary color of the sneaker?

The primary color is dark green, complemented by brown and subtle grey accents.

What does 'ENCAP unit' refer to?

ENCAP refers to the New Balance midsole technology that combines a soft foam core with a durable polyurethane rim for support and shock absorption.

Troubleshooting

Stains on suede material

Gently use a suede brush to lift dry stains. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a clean cloth and work in gentle circular motions. Allow to dry completely, then brush to restore texture.

Reflective panels losing reflectivity

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Clean reflective panels gently with a soft, damp cloth. Excessive scrubbing or harsh chemicals can damage the reflective coating.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Check laces for proper tightness; not too tight or too loose.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris. If slippage persists, consider a professional assessment as wear and tear can affect tread grip over time.
