FAQs

What is the main purpose of the New Balance 574 trainers?

The 574 trainers are designed as a versatile, reliable, and comfortable shoe for everyday wear, rather than for specialized athletic performance.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they offer comfort and a hybrid road/trail design, they are not specifically engineered for intense running. They are best suited for walking and light, casual activities.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a dedicated suede brush to clean dry dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used following the product's directions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What does 'hybrid road/trail design' mean for the 574?

It means the shoe is built with features suitable for both urban environments (road) and less demanding natural surfaces (trail), offering a balance of support and traction.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash the New Balance 574 trainers, especially due to the suede components, as this can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure.

What makes the 574 an 'iconic' shoe?

Its iconic status comes from its unassuming, unpretentious versatility and durability, which has made it a consistently popular and reliable choice adopted as a staple by people worldwide over many years.

Do the 574 trainers come in different widths?

The product information provided focuses on standard widths. For specific width availability (e.g., narrow or wide), it's best to check the product details or contact the retailer.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, use a suede cleaner according to its instructions.

Trainers smell stale

Remove insoles and allow both trainers and insoles to air out completely in a well-ventilated area. Sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with new ones. Ensure laces are tied comfortably, not excessively tight, to reduce strain.

Reduced cushioning over time

While designed for durability, cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles for renewed comfort.
