FAQs

How do I clean my New Balance 740 trainers?

Gently spot clean the mesh and angular overlays with a mild soap and a soft brush or cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities like running?

The New Balance 740 is primarily designed as a classic lifestyle trainer, focusing on comfort and style for casual wear. For high-performance running or other sports, we recommend using specialized athletic footwear.

What is the fit like for the New Balance 740?

The 740 generally offers a comfortable fit suitable for daily wear. We recommend trying them on or referring to an official New Balance size chart to ensure the best fit for your feet, as individual foot shapes vary.

What materials are used in the upper construction?

The upper features a breathable mesh combined with angular overlays, contributing to both comfort and the shoe's distinctive aesthetic.

How can I maintain the contemporary aesthetic of the trainers?

Regular, gentle cleaning and proper storage away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures will help preserve their appearance and prolong their lifespan. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Is the sizing UK specific?

Yes, this specific model is listed in UK sizing. If you are accustomed to other sizing systems (e.g., US or EU), please refer to a reliable New Balance size conversion chart.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel uncomfortable or too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. New Balance sizes can vary, so consult a size guide if unsure. Allow a break-in period, as new shoes often need time to conform to your foot. Try different sock thicknesses.

Stains on the mesh upper or angular overlays.

Immediately spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Gently rub the affected area. For tougher stains, a soft brush can be used, but avoid harsh scrubbing. Do not machine wash.

Unpleasant odor developing inside the trainers.

Remove insoles and air out the trainers completely after each use. You can use shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight (remove before wearing).

General wear and tear affecting appearance.

Regular cleaning as described in the care section will help. Store them properly, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Rotate with other footwear to extend their life.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your New Balance 740 trainers, follow these care tips:

  1. Spot Cleaning: Gently wipe dirty areas with a soft cloth or brush moistened with cold water and a mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Mesh Upper Care: For the breathable mesh, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently remove dirt. Do not scrub aggressively to prevent damage.
  3. Air Dry: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators, which can damage materials.
  4. Deodorize: To prevent odors, remove insoles and allow them to air dry periodically. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside overnight.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
