FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the 574 series for kids?

The primary benefit is its combination of durable, robust construction with a comfortable, versatile design suitable for everyday wear and varied surfaces.

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

While versatile for many activities, they are primarily designed as casual trainers for everyday wear, not specialized athletic performance shoes.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.

What does 'hybrid design for both road and trail' mean?

It means the sole and construction offer a balance of grip and stability suitable for both paved surfaces and light off-road conditions.

Is the sizing consistent with other New Balance kids' shoes?

Generally, New Balance sizing is consistent, but it's always recommended to check the specific size guide for the 574 model or consult store staff if possible.

What is the material of the shoe?

The upper is made of leather, providing durability and a classic look.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The leather can offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and ensure they are properly dried afterward.

Troubleshooting

Sizing issues or discomfort

Ensure the correct UK size is selected. Refer to New Balance sizing charts if unsure. Allow a short break-in period for the shoes to mold to the foot.

Leather scuffs or marks

Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, a leather cleaner or conditioner may be used cautiously, following product instructions.

Laces wear out or break

Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length and type. New Balance offers replacement laces, or generic ones can be found at most shoe stores.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources, as this can damage the leather.
