FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 740 is inspired by a running silhouette, it is designed for casual lifestyle use. It lacks the advanced stability features required for long-distance running.

How do I find my size?

The New Balance 740 generally fits true to size. Refer to standard UK adult sizing charts provided by the retailer.

What is the primary material?

The upper is constructed with a combination of high-quality leather and breathable open mesh.

Can I put them in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the structural integrity of the Abzorb cushioning. Hand cleaning is recommended.

Is the unisex sizing different?

The brand provides unisex sizing, but it is always recommended to check the specific UK size conversion if transitioning between men's and women's standard fits.

What does the 740 series signify?

The 740 series represents a specific design language from New Balance’s archives, re-released to celebrate 2000s-era running footwear design.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the structure of the leather overlays.

Difficulty cleaning mesh

Use a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft-bristle brush, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing aggressively.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent impact absorption from Abzorb technology
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool
  • Versatile retro design suitable for various casual styles
  • Sleek tapered silhouette

Cons

  • Leather/mesh combination requires careful cleaning
  • Not intended for high-performance athletic training
  • Light-coloured elements can be prone to showing dirt

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers feature a mix of leather and mesh, they should be cleaned gently to maintain material integrity. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris from the mesh panels. For the leather sections, use a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner if necessary. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the glue and internal cushioning. To maintain shape, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the blue and white colourways over time.
