FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance 740s are inspired by 2000s daily runners and are best suited for light jogging, walking, and casual wear. For long-distance or competitive running, specialized performance running shoes might offer more targeted support and cushioning.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

For best results, always refer to the specific care label inside your trainers. Generally, for polyester mesh, use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild detergent and cold water for spot cleaning. Avoid submerging the entire shoe or machine washing unless the label specifies it.

What is the N-ergy heel cushioning?

N-ergy is a New Balance cushioning technology designed to provide superior shock absorption and responsive cushioning in the heel, enhancing comfort and energy return during impact.

Are these trainers true to size?

New Balance 740 trainers typically run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks. Always check the New Balance size chart for the most accurate fit guidance.

Can I remove the insoles?

Info needed: This information is not explicitly provided in the product description. In many New Balance models, insoles are removable, which can be useful for airing out or inserting custom orthotics. Please check your specific pair.

What does 'medial post' mean?

A medial post in a shoe's midsole is a denser foam wedge placed on the arch (medial) side. Its purpose is to provide enhanced stability and help control pronation, offering additional support for your foot's arch.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Adjust the speed lacing system. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for the fit you desire. New Balance 740s are true to size for most, but individual foot shapes vary.

Foot odor developing inside the trainers

The mesh upper is breathable, but foot odor can still occur. Ensure trainers are aired out after each use. Consider using odor-absorbing insoles or shoe deodorizers. Regularly wash socks and ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.

Squeaking sound while walking

A squeaking sound can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning both surfaces, and reinserting. If the sole itself squeaks, it might be due to moisture or a specific floor surface.

Material showing signs of wear quickly

While durable, the 740s are designed as daily runners and lifestyle shoes. Excessive strenuous activity or improper care can accelerate wear. Ensure you are following the care label instructions and consider rotating with other footwear if used heavily.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no special setup; simply lace them up and they're ready to wear. They are designed for unisex adult use.

Compatibility:

  • Footwear: Compatible with standard athletic socks for optimal comfort and moisture management.
  • Activities: Best suited for casual wear, daily walking, light running, and streetwear fashion.

Care Instructions:

  • Composition: The upper is 100% Polyester. The sole composition is detailed on the specific care label attached to the product.
  • Cleaning: Always refer to the care label inside the trainer for precise cleaning instructions to maintain material integrity and appearance. Generally, for polyester uppers, a mild detergent and a soft brush or cloth are recommended for spot cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing unless explicitly stated on the care label.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve their condition.
