FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While durable and comfortable, the 740 V2 is designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-performance running.
How do I determine my correct size?
These trainers follow standard UK sizing conventions for adults; we recommend selecting the size you typically wear in New Balance footwear.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you require custom orthotics.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from breathable mesh to enhance ventilation.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the mesh construction is breathable and not intended to be waterproof or water-resistant.
How should I store them to keep the brown colour vibrant?
Keep them stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential fading of the material colours over time.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt accumulation on the mesh upper
Use a soft, dry brush to gently whisk away debris. If deeper cleaning is needed, use a damp, lint-free cloth.
Uncomfortable fit or pressure points
Ensure the laces are adjusted evenly. If tightness persists, try a thinner sock or ensure the tongue is centered.
Creasing or loss of shape
Store the trainers with a shoe tree or stuffed with paper when not in use to help maintain the structural integrity of the angular overlays.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 V2 trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of mesh, avoid exposure to excessive mud or harsh cleaning chemicals that could degrade the fabric integrity. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot treatment. Ensure they air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials. For size compatibility, standard New Balance sizing applies, so stick to your usual UK measurement for the best fit.
