FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer. While it draws inspiration from running shoes, it is not optimized for high-performance athletic running.
How do I determine the right size?
These trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. We recommend purchasing your usual size for the most comfortable fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it may damage the glue, materials, and internal cushioning. Stick to hand cleaning with a mild soap solution.
Are the materials sustainable?
New Balance continues to evaluate material sourcing, but the 740 relies on a mix of textile mesh and synthetic materials for durability and style.
What gender are these shoes for?
The New Balance 740 series includes unisex and male-specific fits, providing options for a wide range of foot types and preferences.
Troubleshooting
Mesh upper is attracting dust and dirt
Use a gentle upholstery brush to regularly remove dust from the netting structure.
Footbed feels less supportive over time
Check if the original insole needs cleaning or if it has compressed; replacing with a high-quality aftermarket insole can refresh the comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 Trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical sneaker size to ensure the best fit.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh upper. For stubborn stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes fully in water.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the cushioning and the shape of the upper.
