FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the New Balance 740 is categorized as a lifestyle trainer designed for casual, everyday wear rather than performance running.

How do I determine my size?

These trainers follow standard UK sizing conventions. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size for a comfortable fit.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are generally removable if you require custom orthotics, though fit may vary based on the thickness of your specific inserts.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 740 features a unisex design intended to accommodate a wide variety of foot shapes and style preferences.

How should I store them?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the materials from fading or degrading over time.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

Consider using a double knot or replacing with flat-lace alternatives if the factory laces are too slippery.

Mesh becoming dirty

Gently scrub with a soft-bristled toothbrush and a solution of warm water and mild detergent; air dry thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile design that integrates well with various casual outfits
  • Lightweight construction suitable for all-day wear
  • Combines authentic retro aesthetics with modern comfort standards
  • Breathable open knit mesh material

Cons

  • Not intended for high-performance athletic sports
  • Light-colored mesh elements may require frequent cleaning
  • Limited to lifestyle and casual fashion use cases

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no setup is required beyond adjusting the laces to your preferred tension. To ensure the longevity of your trainers, it is recommended to spot clean the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or placing them in a machine dryer, as this can damage the cushioning materials and adhesive bonds. If the trainers become wet, air-dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources to maintain the shape of the upper.
