FAQs
Are New Balance 574 trainers true to size?
Yes, most users find them to be true to size, though the wider fit means they may feel roomier than other performance-specific New Balance models.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
The 574 is a lifestyle sneaker inspired by vintage runners. It is best suited for walking and casual activity rather than long-distance athletic training.
How do I clean suede portions of the shoe?
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean eraser to gently remove stains. Avoid using excessive water on suede material.
Is the 574 suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the 574 is widely regarded as one of the better options for wider feet due to its signature wider fit profile.
Can the insoles be replaced with orthotics?
Yes, the factory insoles are removable, allowing you to replace them with custom orthotics if required for additional support.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the 574 is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles to protect the integrity of the materials.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface dust or dried mud
Allow the mud to dry completely and gently use a soft-bristled brush to knock it off; use a suede-specific brush if the exterior is suede.
Interior odor accumulation
Remove the insoles and air them out; consider using an odor-neutralizing spray or inserting charcoal bags overnight.
Creasing in the toe box
Creasing is a natural characteristic of sneaker materials; use a shoe tree when not wearing them to help maintain the original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care for your New Balance 574 ensures they maintain their shape and aesthetic longevity. Because models may utilize varying materials such as suede, cotton, or linen, always check your specific pair's care label. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water or using harsh detergents. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt and a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for localized cleaning. Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material shrinkage or glue degradation. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
