FAQs
Are the New Balance 574 suitable for running?
The 574 is designed as a versatile lifestyle trainer, not a performance running shoe. While comfortable for walking and light activity, it lacks the specialized cushioning and support required for serious running.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
What does 'hybrid road/trail construction' mean?
This refers to the shoe's outsole design, which offers a balance of grip suitable for paved surfaces and some light off-road or trail conditions, providing versatility in different environments.
Are there different widths available?
The 574 is generally known for its classic, slightly wider fit. Specific width options may vary by release and region, but the standard fit is designed for comfort and broader appeal.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a shoe box or dust bag can help protect the suede and maintain their shape.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash New Balance 574 trainers, especially those made with suede, as it can damage the material and affect the shoe's structure and adhesives.
What other colors and sizes are available?
The New Balance 574 series is available in a wide array of colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for currently available options, as they can vary.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap. For tougher stains, consider a suede cleaner following product instructions.
Laces are worn or damaged.
Replace laces with a standard pair of trainer laces. Ensure the length is appropriate for the number of eyelets.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While the midsole is designed for durability, significant wear may reduce cushioning. Consider replacing the shoes if comfort is significantly impacted after extensive use.
Shoe feels too tight.
Ensure the laces are loosened appropriately. If the shoe is still too tight, it may be the wrong size or width for your foot. Consider alternative sizes or widths if available.
