FAQs

Are the New Balance 574 Trainers good for running?

The 574s are designed as lifestyle trainers with a hybrid road/trail influence, prioritizing versatility and comfort for everyday wear. They are not intended for serious or performance running.

What is the primary material of the 574 Trainers?

The 574 Trainers are typically made with a combination of suede and mesh, offering durability and breathability.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the New Balance sizing chart. Trying them on, if possible, is the best way to ensure a comfortable fit, considering the wider last.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the suede and mesh offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the materials.

What does 'unlikeliest icon' mean in the product description?

It suggests that the 574 became a classic and widely popular shoe not because of groundbreaking technology or premium appeal at launch, but due to its unpretentious, versatile, and reliable nature, which resonated with a broad audience over time.

Is the 'Beige/Grey' colorway suitable for all occasions?

Yes, the neutral beige and grey color scheme is highly versatile and pairs well with a wide range of casual outfits, making it suitable for most everyday occasions.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consider a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Consider using thinner socks or checking if the lacing can be adjusted for a looser fit.

Mesh material is snagged or torn

Minor snags can sometimes be carefully trimmed with small scissors. For significant tears, repair may not be feasible, and replacement might be necessary.

Odors developing inside the shoe

Remove insoles if possible and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
