FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort in urban environments. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing guide and measure your foot length. The trainers feature a lace closure for adjustability, but ensure the initial fit is comfortable around the width and length.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a combination of textile, synthetic materials, and suede overlays, offering a balance of breathability and support.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and ABZORB midsole. Hand clean using a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners for suede.
What does 'No Sew' refer to in some models?
'No Sew' indicates that some upper panels are fused or bonded together rather than stitched, which can contribute to a lighter weight and cleaner aesthetic.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The mesh upper is breathable, which means it will allow air in but also moisture if exposed to significant wetness.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after wearing
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Allow a break-in period for the shoes to mold to your feet.
Suede looking worn or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consider a suede cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
The split rubber outsole provides optimal grip on dry urban terrain. Exercise caution on wet surfaces, as grip may be diminished.
