FAQs
Are New Balance 740 Sneakers suitable for running or sports?
The New Balance 740s revive early 2000s 'runner DNA' in their design and comfort. However, they are primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe for casual wear and daily comfort, not for high-performance running or athletic sports.
How do I clean the mesh upper of my 740s?
For the mesh upper and synthetic overlays, gently brush off any loose dirt. Mix a small amount of mild soap with cool water, then use a soft brush or cloth to lightly scrub stained areas. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Do New Balance 740s run true to size?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up, especially if you prefer a roomier fit or plan to wear thicker socks.
What kind of cushioning does the 740 model use?
The New Balance 740 features an ABZORB midsole. This New Balance proprietary technology provides excellent cushioning and absorbs impact through a combination of foam and rubber, enhancing overall comfort.
Can I wear these sneakers in wet weather?
The 740s feature an open mesh upper for breathability, which means they are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or very wet conditions to prevent your feet from getting wet and to protect the shoe materials from damage.
What does 'early 2000s runner DNA' mean?
This refers to the design inspirations drawn from New Balance running shoes from the early 2000s. It includes elements like the style of the mesh, the dynamic overlays, and the visible cushioning technology, giving the shoe a distinct retro-sporty look.
Troubleshooting
Sneakers feel uncomfortable or too tight.
Check the size and fit; ensure laces are not too tight. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to break them in.
Sneakers get dirty quickly.
Regularly brush off loose dirt. For deeper stains, use the recommended spot-cleaning method with mild soap and water. Consider applying a fabric protector spray suitable for mesh and synthetics.
Unpleasant odor from sneakers.
Ensure sneakers are aired out after each wear. Remove insoles occasionally for separate airing. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
Outsole shows wear prematurely.
While durable, consistent wear on abrasive surfaces can accelerate wear. Rotate with other footwear to extend the lifespan. Ensure proper walking gait.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 740 Sneakers:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap mixed with water and a soft brush or cloth to spot clean the mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid Heavy Soaking: The mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof; avoid wearing in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent internal dampness and potential material degradation.
