FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 740 V2 is excellent for daily wear and light activity, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer rather than a high-mileage distance running shoe.
How do I determine if size 9 UK fits me?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent, but we recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it to our size chart to ensure the best fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and structural support of the shoes. Always clean them by hand.
Is the animal pattern subtle?
The pattern is designed to be eye-catching, so it is a prominent visual feature of the shoe's overall design.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The 740 V2 uses a blend of synthetic and textile materials designed for a balance of durability, breathability, and aesthetic appeal.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the standard inserts are typically removable if you need to insert custom medical orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of discomfort or tight fit
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to provide more room in the toe box or ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.
Accumulation of dust on the animal pattern
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently sweep away debris without damaging the patterned material.
Soles losing traction
Clean the bottom of the shoes with a damp brush to remove caked-on dirt and restore the grip of the rubber outsoles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 740 V2 trainers, it is essential to follow proper maintenance routines. When first received, ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension to prevent unnecessary rubbing. These trainers are compatible with standard athletic orthotics if you require additional arch support. For cleaning, avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away surface dirt. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high temperatures can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the shoe.
