FAQs

Are the New Balance 740 trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the 740s are best suited for casual wear and light activities. For intense running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance, or if possible, try the shoes on in-store. These are unisex adult sizes.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily constructed from open knit mesh, with some variations potentially including nylon and angular overlays.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Hand wash gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then air dry.

How durable are the 740 trainers?

Designed as a daily runner, they offer good durability for regular casual use. Longevity will depend on the frequency and intensity of wear.

What does 'No Sew' mean in some product titles?

'No Sew' typically refers to construction techniques where adhesives or heat bonding are used instead of traditional stitching for certain overlays, contributing to a cleaner look and potentially lighter weight.

What is the main color combination for this model?

The primary color combination mentioned is Grey with Beige accents.

Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort or stiffness

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Consider wearing them with appropriate socks.

Tread wear on outsole

Outsole wear is a natural consequence of use. For significantly worn treads affecting grip, consider replacement or professional sole repair if available.

Mesh upper discoloration

Avoid exposing the shoes to harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.

Compatibility:

Care:
