FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?
The New Balance 574 Legacy trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and everyday wear. While they offer comfort and support, they are not specialized for high-impact athletic activities.
How do I determine the correct size for a unisex trainer?
Unisex sizing typically differs from standard men's or women's sizing. It is recommended to consult the New Balance size guide for specific conversion charts or measure your foot and compare it to the provided measurements.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, particularly the wool, and compromise the shoe's structure. Hand washing or spot cleaning is the preferred method.
What is the primary material used in these trainers?
The primary material for this specific variant is Wool, complemented by other standard trainer components for durability and comfort. Other variants may use Suede or other materials.
What does 'Legacy' signify in the product name?
'Legacy' typically indicates that the product is an iteration or evolution of a classic model, retaining its iconic features while potentially incorporating updated materials or slight design refinements.
How durable are the trainers for daily use?
The 574 Legacy trainers are built with durable materials intended for regular daily wear. However, longevity will depend on usage intensity and proper care.
Is the blue color consistent across all 'Blue' variants?
While the primary color family is blue, secondary colors and material finishes can vary between different 574 Legacy variants. For example, some may feature white accents while others might have beige or be entirely blue.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between shoe layers or a loose insole. Try removing the insole, ensuring both it and the interior of the shoe are dry, and then reinserting it. A light dusting of baby powder under the insole can also help.
Discoloration on wool material
For minor discoloration, try spot cleaning with a damp cloth. For significant staining, consult a professional shoe cleaner or use a cleaner specifically designed for wool fabrics, testing it on a small, hidden area first.
Reduced comfort over time
Ensure the insoles are still providing adequate support. Consider replacing the insoles if they appear worn or flattened. Regular cleaning also helps maintain material integrity and comfort.
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Laces can be adjusted for a more secure or relaxed fit. If the overall fit is incorrect, ensure you have selected the correct size. The unisex design may fit differently for individuals compared to gender-specific sizing.

Care:
To maintain the quality and appearance of your 574 Legacy trainers, especially those with wool components:
- Spot Clean: For minor dirt or scuffs, use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove debris. A slightly damp cloth can be used for tougher spots.
- Wool Care: Avoid soaking the wool areas. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a specialized wool cleaner and a gentle hand-washing technique, focusing on the affected area. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous spot first.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials, especially wool.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
