FAQs
Are the New Balance 574 trainers waterproof?
No, they are not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to guard against light moisture.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The 574 series is designed as a lifestyle shoe. While durable for walking, they lack the technical features required for professional running.
How should I clean the suede panels?
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean, dry cloth to gently lift dirt. Avoid liquid cleaners unless they are specifically formulated for suede.
What is the best way to maintain the shape of the shoes?
Use shoe trees or stuff the shoes with tissue paper when not in use to help them retain their structure.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for the 574 series.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or aftermarket insoles if needed.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after long wear
Feet often swell slightly during the day; ensure laces are adjusted throughout the day to allow for natural expansion.
Surface stains appearing on suede
Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently buff the area. Avoid using standard soap and water, which may damage the texture.
Loss of internal cushioning support
Check the condition of the original insole; replacing with a high-quality aftermarket insole can extend the comfort life of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 574s maintain their quality, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are standard fit. Ensure you verify your UK size 12 against your current footwear for the best fit.
- Cleaning: Since the model often utilizes suede, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for light scuffing.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material breakdown.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede can help preserve the exterior against unpredictable weather.
