FAQs
What does ABZORB midsole mean?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam cushioning technology that provides superior shock absorption and compression resistance, delivering exceptional comfort and responsiveness.
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
While inspired by early 2000s running shoes, the New Balance 740 is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I choose the right size?
New Balance shoes generally run true to size. It's recommended to measure your foot length and consult the New Balance size chart. If unsure, consider trying them on or selecting your usual sneaker size.
What materials are the sneakers made of?
The New Balance 740 features a mesh upper for breathability, synthetic overlays for durability and style, and a rubber outsole for traction.
Can I machine wash these sneakers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and adhesive. It's best to hand clean them using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.
Do these sneakers offer good arch support?
The New Balance 740 features a comfortable ABZORB midsole which provides general cushioning and support. For specific arch support needs, you may consider using aftermarket insoles.
What type of outfits do these sneakers pair best with?
Thanks to their neutral Bisque color and versatile retro design, they pair well with a wide range of casual outfits including jeans, chinos, shorts, track pants, and various casual dresses or skirts.
Troubleshooting
Sneakers feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. New sneakers may require a short 'break-in' period. Try wearing them for shorter durations initially.
My sneakers look dirty quickly.
The light Bisque color can show dirt more easily. Regularly wipe down the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain their appearance.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by air trapped in the sole or friction between the insole and the shoe. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder under it. If persistent, check for loose parts or manufacturing defects.
Laces constantly come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. Over time, laces can wear, so consider replacing them if they are too smooth or frayed.
