FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 trainers are designed with ABZORB cushioning for responsive comfort, making them great for everyday wear and light activities. However, they are not specialized for high-impact running and may not provide the specific support needed for intense training.
What materials are the trainers made of?
The trainers feature an open-knit mesh upper with synthetic and suede overlays, and a rubber outsole. The midsole incorporates ABZORB cushioning.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by brushing.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The open-knit mesh upper provides breathability but may not offer significant protection against rain or wet conditions. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What does ABZORB mean?
ABZORB is a New Balance technology that provides a resilient cushioning and shock-absorbing feel, helping to reduce the impact on your feet and joints.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance and measure your foot for accuracy. Consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary.
