FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

The New Balance 5740 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle use, offering comfort and style. They are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic performance.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing guide for accurate measurements. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary. The 'Moonbeam Nightwatch Green' colorway is available in UK size 4.5, but other sizes may be available for this model.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it is advisable to wear waterproof footwear. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

What is the main difference between the 574 and the 5740?

The 5740 features a more contemporary and enhanced silhouette compared to the classic 574. Its midsole design is a fusion of the 574's iconic shape with 90s-inspired technology, and it includes distinct 80s-style detailing.

How should I clean the 'Nightwatch Green' accents?

Use a damp cloth to gently clean the green accents. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could affect the color.

What material are these trainers made from?

These trainers are crafted primarily from leather, offering durability and a premium feel, with additional design elements contributing to their unique aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to rehydrate the material. Ensure you test on an inconspicuous area first.

Color transfer from green accents

Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing. If color transfer occurs onto clothing, wash the affected garment immediately according to its care instructions. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics when wet.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The rubber soles may require a break-in period. If slipperiness persists, consider a light scuffing of the sole on rougher surfaces or consult a shoe specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Ideal for adult males looking for a versatile casual shoe. They pair well with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: To maintain the appearance of the leather, use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
  4. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially for the suede or nubuck components if present.
