What makes the ABZORB midsole special?

The ABZORB midsole provides a unique combination of cushioning and compression resistance, designed to absorb impact effectively and provide lasting comfort.

Can I wear these trainers for running or intense sports?

While they offer good comfort for walking and daily activities, the 740 is not specifically designed for high-impact athletic performance or specialized sports. It is best suited for casual wear and light activities.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended, following the product's instructions carefully and testing on a small area first. Avoid excessive moisture.

The product description does not specify width options. It's recommended to check available sizing or consult New Balance's sizing guide for more information on fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Wearing them with appropriate socks can also affect comfort.

Suede material looks dirty or stained.

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, apply a suede-specific cleaner according to the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Breathability seems limited.

Ensure the mesh areas are clear of debris. For maximum breathability, wear with moisture-wicking socks. Note that breathability can vary based on external conditions.

Sole feels stiff.

New shoes can initially feel stiff. Wear them for short periods to allow the midsole to flex and conform to your foot's natural movement. The ABZORB midsole is designed to adapt over time.
