FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

Is this a unisex model?

Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Does the shoe run true to size?

Troubleshooting
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the material maintain its shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, always use a shoe horn when putting them on to protect the heel structure. Given the polyester upper, it is best to avoid machine washing, which can degrade materials. Instead, spot clean using a soft brush, mild detergent, and lukewarm water. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent warping or material damage. Always check your specific UK size, as the 740 series fits true to standard New Balance sizing.
