FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, New Balance 740 trainers generally fit true to standard adult sizing, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to verify their size against a standard brannock device.

Can I use these for running?

While these feature running-inspired heritage design, they are intended for lifestyle and casual wear rather than intense long-distance running or professional sports.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft brush and lukewarm water mixed with a mild soap. Gently scrub the mesh, then blot dry with a clean cloth.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the 740 series is designed as a unisex model, suitable for all adults.

Will the colours fade over time?

To preserve the vibrancy of the grey and blue tones, store your shoes out of direct sunlight when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during activity

Use a double knot or replace with slightly longer laces if the current length is insufficient for a secure tie.

Accumulation of dust in the mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush or a light vacuum attachment to gently lift dirt from the open knit material.

Creasing or loss of shape

Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the trainers maintain their original silhouette.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile and timeless 2000s-inspired aesthetics
  • Highly breathable open knit mesh construction
  • Updated cushioning for improved daily comfort
  • Available in a wide range of sizes
  • Suitable for casual, everyday wear

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; ensure you select the appropriate UK size to maintain a secure fit. To prolong the life of your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the mesh and foam components. Instead, spot clean with a soft brush, mild detergent, and warm water. For moisture management, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the materials to warp or stiffen.
