FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth is the best way to maintain the structural integrity of the materials.
What does the bungee lacing system do?
The bungee lacing system replaces traditional laces with an elastic cord, allowing the shoe to stretch for easy entry while providing a secure fit without the need to tie knots.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The 740 series is designed with a standard width that fits most children comfortably. If your child has very wide feet, it is recommended to try a half-size up or consult a shoe fitting specialist.
Does this model come in other colors?
The specific 740 model highlighted here comes in a classic black and grey colorway, which is versatile for most occasions.
How do I know if I have the right UK size?
You should measure the child's foot from heel to longest toe and compare it to the New Balance UK size guide, ensuring there is about a thumb's width of space at the front for growth.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight across the top of the foot
Ensure the bungee laces are not twisted or tangled inside the lace eyelets, as this can restrict the natural stretch of the closure.
Heel slipping while walking
Check that the shoe size is appropriate for the child's foot length; if the size is correct, ensure the child is wearing appropriate athletic socks to add volume and grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 740 trainers, keep them away from heavy mud and moisture where possible. If the shoes become dirty, spot-clean them using a soft, damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the supportive foam and adhesive components. For compatibility, ensure you are referencing the specific UK sizing, as conversion to EU or US sizing varies. Always check that the heel collar remains snug around the child's ankle during initial wear to ensure the bungee system is providing the intended level of support.
