FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard New Balance sizing for UK 10 adult feet.
Can I use these for running?
The 740 V2 is designed as a lifestyle trainer and is not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities.
How do I best clean the mesh?
Lightly dab the area with a mixture of water and a very mild soap, then air dry completely.
Are the materials suitable for wet weather?
While durable, the mesh upper is breathable and will not keep your feet dry in heavy rain or deep puddles.
What is the inspiration behind this model?
This model is a comeback of the original 740 series, paying homage to its design roots in the early 2000s.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the mesh upper
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge dry dirt before wiping with a damp cloth.
Feeling too tight after a few hours
Loosen the lacing system starting from the eyelets closest to the toe to allow for natural foot expansion.
Creasing at the forefoot
Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the upper retain its original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 V2 trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the UK 10 size provides enough room in the toe box for natural foot swelling during the day.
- Cleaning: Wipe the mesh upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp materials.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew or discoloration of the brown textile and synthetic components.
- Maintenance: Regularly remove loose debris from the outsole to maintain grip and prevent tracking dirt indoors.
