FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or gym workouts?

While durable and comfortable, the New Balance 740 Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday activities, emphasizing style and general comfort over specialized athletic performance features.

How do I determine the correct size?

New Balance typically runs true to size. We recommend ordering your standard shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size for optimal comfort, especially with socks. Info needed: Specific sizing recommendations if available.

What materials are used in the upper part of the trainer?

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

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash your New Balance 740 Trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the care instructions provided in this guide for cleaning.

What is meant by 'classic homage' design?

This refers to the trainer's design being a tribute to its original release and popularity in the early 2000s, bringing back a beloved, timeless style with modern touches.

Do these trainers offer arch support?

New Balance trainers typically include standard arch support suitable for general daily wear. For specific orthotic needs, insoles can often be replaced with custom options if required.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing. For a tighter fit, pull laces firmer. For a looser fit, ease the tension. You may also try different lacing patterns to accommodate your foot shape.

Unpleasant odor develops

Remove insoles and air out the trainers after each use. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not wearing them to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Stains on the mesh or overlays

Act quickly! Gently blot fresh stains with a clean, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a small amount of mild soap diluted in water and gently scrub with a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and air dry.

Squeaking sound when walking

Check if the insole is properly seated; sometimes a loose insole can cause squeaking. If not the insole, a small amount of baby powder under the insole can often resolve the issue by reducing friction.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 740 Trainers:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the breathable mesh and angular overlays, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which can damage the material. Let air dry away from direct heat.
  • Insoles: Remove insoles periodically to air them out, which helps prevent odors.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid storing them in plastic bags as this can trap moisture.
