FAQs

Are these New Balance 740 Trainers suitable for running?

No, the New Balance 740 series is primarily designed for casual wear and daily comfort, not for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.

How should I clean the breathable mesh upper?

For the mesh upper, gently clean with a soft brush or cloth using a mild soap solution and lukewarm water. Avoid harsh scrubbing or machine washing. Always air dry your trainers.

Is the `UK 7` size true to fit?

New Balance trainers generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your standard UK shoe size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the New Balance 740 Trainers feature a breathable mesh upper and are not designed to be waterproof. They offer limited protection against heavy rain.

What are the primary materials used in the 740 Trainers?

The New Balance 740 Trainers feature a breathable mesh upper combined with angular overlays, providing both comfort and a distinctive aesthetic.

Can these trainers be worn year-round?

These trainers are ideal for warmer, dry conditions due to their breathable mesh. For colder or wet weather, alternative footwear with more protection would be more suitable.

What makes the 740 series a 'classic'?

The 740 series is a fan-favorite classic, making a highly anticipated comeback and playing homage to its reliable design from the early 2000s, blending heritage with contemporary styling.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Verify you ordered the correct `UK 7` size. Try adjusting laces. If consistently uncomfortable, ensure you have the appropriate New Balance size for your foot.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by insoles rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insoles. If the issue persists, a small amount of baby powder under the insole can help.

Noticeable odor developing.

Regularly air out your trainers after use. Remove insoles and let them dry completely. Consider using foot powder or shoe deodorizers to absorb moisture and prevent bacterial growth.

Mesh upper appears dirty or stained.

Gently spot clean the mesh with a soft brush or cloth, using a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water. Avoid saturating the fabric. Air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your New Balance 740 Trainers is straightforward.

  1. Unbox: Remove trainers from packaging.
  2. Inspect: Check for any manufacturing irregularities.
  3. Try On: Wear them with socks you typically use to ensure the UK 7 size offers a comfortable fit. Walk around to assess comfort.
  4. Break-In: New shoes may feel stiff initially. Wear them for short periods at first to allow them to conform to your foot shape.

  • Casual Attire: Jeans, chinos, shorts, skirts, and dresses.

Care

Proper care ensures the longevity and appearance of your trainers:

  • Cleaning: For the breathable mesh upper and angular overlays, gently wipe with a damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage. Do not tumble dry.
  • Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Consider using shoe deodorizers or baking soda to absorb moisture and odors.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid crushing them to maintain their shape.
  • Protection: For enhanced stain and water resistance (though not waterproof), you may use a suitable shoe protector spray designed for mesh and synthetic materials.
