Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 740 Trainer is designed for adults seeking a versatile, everyday shoe that merges 2000s-era running aesthetics with modern comfort. Its primary benefit lies in the combination of breathable, lightweight polyester mesh construction and a supportive, segmented midsole that handles long days on your feet with ease. While these trainers offer excellent casual utility and style, they are primarily lifestyle-oriented footwear rather than specialized performance athletic gear for intensive training.

FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the materials and glue, which may compromise the integrity of the trainer.
Are these suitable for running?
While inspired by 2000s running shoes, the 740 is designed for lifestyle and casual use rather than specialized athletic training.
Do these come in different materials?
Yes, while the primary version features polyester mesh, other variants in the 740 series may incorporate different materials like leather.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest, and compare your measurement with a standard UK size chart.
Can I use custom orthotics with this shoe?
The insoles are generally removable, which often accommodates aftermarket or custom orthotic inserts.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone during activity
Try using a double-knot or replacing the laces with textured performance laces if more friction is needed.
Accumulation of dust in the mesh
Use a can of compressed air or a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently dislodge debris from the open mesh pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; simply adjust the laces to your preferred tension upon first wear to ensure a secure fit. Regarding compatibility, the unisex sizing allows for a broad range of fits, but it is recommended to verify your UK size against the specific model variant. To care for your 740s, keep them clean by gently brushing off loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild soapy water and a cloth. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these processes can degrade the mesh material and structural integrity of the midsole.
