FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to clean these trainers by hand with a damp cloth rather than using a washing machine, which can damage the materials.
Do these trainers have traditional laces?
No, this model features a bungee lace system for a slip-on experience.
Are the New Balance 740 trainers true to size?
New Balance sizing can vary by series. We recommend measuring the child's foot and consulting the size chart before purchase.
What is the primary material used?
These trainers are constructed with durable synthetic materials designed for active wear.
Can these be worn for sports?
While they are comfortable for general play and school, they are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance sports equipment.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the top of the foot
Adjust the tongue and ensure the foot is fully seated in the heel cup; if the tightness persists, verify that the shoe size matches the child's current foot measurements.
Bungee lace feels loose during activity
Check if the bungee has become tangled or twisted near the anchor points; smooth out the laces to restore proper tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for these trainers; simply slide the child's foot into the shoe and adjust the tongue for a comfortable fit. The bungee system is pre-tensioned to hold the foot securely. To maintain the appearance of the grey and black fabric, spot clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap when necessary. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the structural integrity and the bungee components. Periodically check that the bungee laces have not lost their elasticity to ensure the shoe continues to provide a safe, secure fit.
