FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the New Balance 574 suede model does not have water-resistant properties and should be kept away from water.
Can these be worn for sports?
These are lifestyle trainers. While they are durable and comfortable for playground play and school, they are not intended for high-performance athletic training.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a specialized suede brush or a very slightly dampened cloth. Avoid saturation and let them air-dry completely.
Is the fit true to size?
The 574 is built on a wider last, which generally provides a more generous fit than narrow racing-style sneakers.
Are these suitable for all genders?
Yes, this model features a unisex design and colour scheme appropriate for any child.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from suede, providing a durable and stylish finish.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dry dirt on the suede
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently sweep the nap of the suede in one direction.
Shoes feel tight after a growth spurt
The 574 is built on a wider last, but if discomfort persists, ensure the laces are adjusted to allow for maximum volume or consider moving up a half-size.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Since the upper is made of suede, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt.
- Stain Removal: For tougher spots, use a specialized suede eraser or a cloth slightly dampened with a minimal amount of mild, suede-safe cleaning solution.
- Drying: If the shoes become damp, air-dry them naturally at room temperature. Never place them in a dryer or near a direct heat source, as this can shrink or damage the suede fibers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
