FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 740 No Sew Trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They feature ABZORB cushioning for comfort but do not offer the specialized support and stability required for running. For running, consider shoes specifically designed for that purpose.

How do I clean the woven upper without damaging it?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the woven textile upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as these can damage the material and the no-sew construction.

What does 'No Sew' construction mean for the shoe?

'No Sew' construction means that synthetic overlays are bonded to the upper material instead of being stitched. This typically results in a lighter shoe with a cleaner aesthetic and reduced potential for irritation from seams.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole provides traction, the textile upper is not waterproof. These trainers are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is recommended.

What is ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is a New Balance technology that provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning. It helps to minimize impact forces on the foot, contributing to overall comfort during wear.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the UK sizing guide provided by New Balance. It's recommended to try them on with the type of socks you usually wear. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box without the heel slipping.

Are there other color options available?

New Balance often releases the 740 model in various colorways. While this guide focuses on the Beige variant, other colors may be available through different retailers or product listings.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still snug, wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. Using slightly thicker socks can also help identify if the sizing is truly an issue.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB cushioning is designed for durability, but its effectiveness may decrease with prolonged, heavy use. For general wear, it should last a significant period. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended purpose.

Soles becoming slippery

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be reducing traction. If the wear pattern on the sole is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.

Discoloration of materials

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning chemicals. Clean with a damp cloth as recommended and allow to air dry away from heat sources.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and debris from the textile and synthetic upper. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Clean the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect them from dust and damage.
