FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 is primarily a lifestyle trainer. While comfortable for walking, they do not feature the advanced technical cushioning required for long-distance running.
How do I maintain the white colour?
Wipe the shoes down after every few wears with a damp cloth to prevent dirt from setting into the fabric.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
Yes, the 740 series generally fits true to standard adult sizing standards.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are typically removable if you require custom orthotics, but please ensure the inserts do not interfere with the internal fit.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the breathable mesh and material construction are not designed to be waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Laces constantly coming undone
Ensure you are using a standard double knot or a secure reef knot, and ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets.
Outer white material showing scuffs
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft-bristled brush with a gentle cleaner to buff out surface-level marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Out of the box, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension level to match your arch and instep height.
Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adult sizing. For the best experience, wear them with moisture-wicking athletic socks to enhance the breathability benefits of the shoe interior.
Care Instructions:
- Avoid machine washing, which can damage the structural integrity of the upper.
- Clean surface dirt with a soft brush or a damp cloth.
- Use a mild soap solution for stubborn stains, ensuring you air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
