These trainers provide a secure, supportive fit ideal for school, playground play, and casual outings, though the polyester-based construction is best suited for dry weather conditions rather than heavy-duty outdoor trekking in wet terrain.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are designed for general everyday wear and light activity rather than competitive athletic running.
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure your child's feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest, allowing for a small amount of growth room.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they are made from polyester and should not be considered waterproof or water-resistant.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
We recommend hand-cleaning only to preserve the shape and performance of the materials.
Are these suitable for school uniforms?
Yes, the neutral grey and black colour scheme is generally well-suited for most school environments.
Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 740 trainers, keep the following care instructions in mind:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or debris from the polyester mesh exterior.
- Stain Removal: For deeper cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the shoes as this may affect the structural integrity.
- Air Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never place these trainers in a tumble dryer or on a direct radiator, as high heat can warp the material.
- Fit Check: Ensure the shoes are properly sized for the child's foot by checking for a thumb-width of space in the toe box.
