FAQs
Is the New Balance 580 suitable for running?
While it features athletic technology, the 580 is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for walking and everyday use, not high-intensity running.
What does the ROLLBAR do?
The ROLLBAR is a stability post system that helps reduce rearfoot movement, providing extra support for those who need more control.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and technical components of the ABZORB and C-CAP midsoles. Hand cleaning is recommended.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to ensure proper comfort during the natural flex of the foot.
Does the 580 come in different widths?
The New Balance 580 is typically manufactured in a standard width; please check the product label for specific fitting details.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose in the heel
Adjust your lacing technique to use the top 'runner's loop' eyelet to lock the heel more securely into the ROLLBAR system.
Visible scuffs on the upper material
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft suede brush depending on the specific material finish of your colorway.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 580 sneakers last, follow these guidelines. When first wearing the shoes, ensure you have the correct size—specifically focusing on the heel lock to allow the ROLLBAR system to function correctly. If you wear custom orthotics, the factory insole can usually be removed to accommodate them, though the stock C-CAP cushioning is designed for optimal performance on its own. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the specialized materials in the ABZORB midsole.
