FAQs

Are the New Balance 574 trainers suitable for running?

The 574 trainers have a hybrid road/trail design and offer comfort for walking and general use, but they are not specifically designed for high-performance running. For dedicated running, a specialized running shoe is recommended.

How do I clean the suede material on my 574 trainers?

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Always allow suede to air dry naturally away from heat.

What is the main advantage of the 574's design?

The primary advantage is its unpretentious versatility, making it a reliable and comfortable shoe suitable for a wide variety of daily activities and styles, rather than excelling in one specific technical area.

Are these trainers unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 574 trainers are designed as unisex footwear, suitable for adults.

How durable are the 574 trainers?

They are built with durable materials and a robust construction intended for everyday wear, making them a long-lasting option for regular use.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

While the suede can be treated with a protectant spray, it is not inherently waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.

What size should I order?

The trainers are available in standard UK adult sizes. It is recommended to refer to New Balance's sizing guide or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, the shoes may require a short break-in period. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Reduced cushioning over time

The insoles may be worn out. Consider replacing them with new insoles designed for athletic or casual shoes to restore comfort.

Water or stains on suede

Act quickly to blot the stain. For water, allow to dry naturally. For other stains, use a suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully. Regular use of a protectant spray can prevent future stains.
