FAQs

Are these trainers truly unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 574 Suede Trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for all genders.

How much recycled material is used in these trainers?

The mesh in the vamp, collar, and tongue is made from 100% recycled polyester, and the rubber outsole contains 5% recycled rubber. Additionally, the midsole foam includes approximately 3% bio-based content.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The ENCAP midsole cushioning provides a combination of soft foam and a durable polyurethane rim, offering general support for all-day wear. For specific arch support needs, insoles might be considered.

What is the best way to clean the suede parts?

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, being careful not to saturate the material. Always air dry.

Can I wear these for running or sports?

The 574 trainers are best suited for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not designed as performance athletic shoes for running or intense sports activities.

What does 'ENCAP midsole cushioning' mean?

ENCAP refers to a core of soft EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam encapsulated within a tough, durable polyurethane rim. This construction provides both cushioning and support.

How should I determine my size, given the recommendation to size up?

The product notes suggest that this model may run small. It is generally recommended to order one half or a full size larger than your usual shoe size to ensure a comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or small

As the product description notes that this model may run small, consider ordering one size up from your usual size for a more comfortable fit.

Suede material appears dirty or marked

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning product and follow its instructions carefully, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid washing the shoes.

Lack of support for intense activity

These trainers are designed for everyday comfort and casual wear, not for high-impact sports. For athletic activities, consider specialized sports footwear.
