FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 578 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light activities, such as walking or everyday use. While they offer comfort and support, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the advanced cushioning or stability required for high-performance running.
How do I determine my correct size?
This specific variant is a UK size 5. For accurate sizing, it's always recommended to measure your foot or try on a New Balance pair if possible. Refer to New Balance's official sizing chart for guidance, keeping in mind UK sizing standards.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is generally not recommended for New Balance trainers as it can damage materials, adhesives, and alter their shape. Always opt for hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap, followed by air drying.
What materials are the New Balance 578 made from?
Info needed: The exact material composition for this specific variant is not provided. Typically, New Balance trainers like the 578 series feature a blend of synthetic overlays, mesh, and durable rubber outsoles for comfort and longevity.
How do I keep the red color vibrant?
To maintain the vibrant red color, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when storing. Clean gently with mild, color-safe cleaning solutions and allow to air dry away from heat. Avoid harsh chemicals that could cause fading.
Are these trainers good for arch support?
New Balance shoes are generally known for offering good support. The 578 series provides a comfortable base for everyday wear. For specific arch support needs, you may consider adding custom insoles, but for general use, they should provide adequate comfort.
What is the warranty for these trainers?
Info needed: Please refer to the retailer's or New Balance's official warranty policy for specific details regarding coverage and duration.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have the correct UK size 5 for your foot. Adjust lacing for a more customized fit – tighter for more support, looser for more comfort. Consider trying different socks.
Foot discomfort or rubbing.
Check your lacing; sometimes an uneven or too-tight lace can cause issues. Ensure your socks are appropriate for trainers. If discomfort persists, inspect for any internal seams or defects and contact customer support if needed.
Unpleasant odor develops.
Allow trainers to air out thoroughly after each wear. Remove insoles to air dry separately. Use shoe deodorizers, baking soda, or cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.
Stains or dirt on the red material.
Gently clean with a soft brush or damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated shoe cleaner. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first to ensure no discoloration.
Sole appears to be losing grip.
Clean the outsole regularly to remove accumulated dirt or debris that can reduce traction. If the tread is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacing the trainers for safety.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your New Balance 578 trainers:
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe down the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage materials or fade the color. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized shoe cleaner according to its instructions.
- Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can warp materials or cause adhesives to break down.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Odor Control: To prevent odors, air out your trainers after each use. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
