FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for school sports?

They are designed for everyday wear and general comfort, making them great for school activities, though specialized sports may require performance-specific footwear.

How do I determine the right size?

It is best to measure your child's feet in the afternoon when they are slightly swollen, and ensure there is about a thumb's width of space at the front.

Can the insoles be removed?

Yes, most New Balance children's trainers feature removable insoles if you need to use orthotics or clean them separately.

Are these trainers machine washable?

We recommend hand cleaning with a damp cloth to protect the materials and structure of the shoe.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The New Balance 740 series generally offers a standard fit, but the materials provide a degree of natural flexibility for comfort.

Troubleshooting

The trainers are getting dirty quickly

Apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for trainers before the first use to create a protective barrier.

The fit feels slightly tight

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly; if the foot has outgrown the shoe, it is time to size up for proper development.

Pros and Cons

  • Limited to specific colorway options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your New Balance 740 trainers starts with ensuring the correct size for your child's current foot growth. Since children's feet grow quickly, it is recommended to check the fit every few months to ensure there is enough room in the toe box.

Care Instructions:

  1. Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth after outdoor play to prevent dirt from setting into the white fabric.
  2. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the materials.
  3. For stubborn marks, use a gentle shoe cleaner specifically formulated for trainers.
  4. Avoid putting these trainers in the washing machine, as high heat and heavy agitation can compromise the integrity of the support structures.
