Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct UK size. New Balance often recommends trying on shoes to confirm fit. Adjust lacing tension for optimal comfort.
Unpleasant odor
Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each use. Consider using shoe deodorizers or placing baking soda sachets inside when not in use. Avoid wearing the same pair every day if possible.
Squeaking sound while walking
Often caused by moisture trapped between parts of the sole or insole. Remove insoles and clean both the inside of the shoe and the insoles. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and lukewarm water to gently scrub the affected areas. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and air dry completely.

The New Balance 740 features a unisex design and is available in a range of adult UK sizes (e.g., UK 10, UK 4, UK 7). This makes them a versatile choice for a wide array of foot shapes and sizes. They pair well with various casual and athletic clothing styles.
Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 740 shoes:
- Cleaning:
- For general dirt, gently wipe the mesh upper and sole with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap.
- Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
- For stubborn stains, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used on the sole.
- Drying:
- Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can cause cracking or fading.
- Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage:
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- If possible, use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use for extended periods.
