FAQs

Are the New Balance 57/40 suitable for running?

The 57/40 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While comfortable for walking, it does not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for dedicated running activities.

How does the 57/40 fit compared to other New Balance models?

The 57/40 generally fits true to size, but its distinctive, slightly wider silhouette might feel different from slimmer New Balance models. Trying them on is recommended if possible.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the materials offer some resistance, these are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and keep your feet dry.

What does 'Sea Salt White Black' refer to?

This refers to the colorway of the sneaker. 'Sea Salt' typically indicates an off-white or creamy base, 'White' refers to standard white accents, and 'Black' denotes black detailing for contrast.

How do I clean the leather parts of the shoe?

Use a leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap. After cleaning, allow the leather to air dry and consider applying a leather conditioner to keep it supple.

What is the primary inspiration for the 57/40 design?

The 57/40 draws inspiration from classic New Balance models, particularly the 574, and updates it with a more contemporary, oversized, and layered aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels slightly off

Ensure you have tried them on with appropriate socks. If still uncomfortable, consider the possibility of needing a different size or width, as foot shapes vary.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Try a different lacing knot, such as a 'surgeon's knot', or replace the laces with a pair that has more grip.

Discoloration on white areas

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a specialized shoe cleaner for white materials might be effective. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
