FAQs

Are these trainers machine washable?

It is generally recommended to hand-wash these shoes to prevent damage to the adhesive and foam, which can occur in a washing machine.

What age group are these for?

These trainers are specifically designed for kids, offering the support and fit required for developing feet.

Does the mesh get stained easily?

While the breathable mesh is excellent for comfort, the light grey colour can show stains more easily than darker colours, so prompt spot cleaning is advised.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to air them out or replace them with custom orthotics.

Are they suitable for high-intensity sports?

While durable and comfortable for daily activities and moderate movement, they are primarily designed as casual, lifestyle trainers rather than performance-specific athletic gear.

Troubleshooting

Mesh upper is attracting dirt

Apply a water-repellent spray specifically designed for synthetic trainers to create a protective barrier against dust and grime.

Shoes feel tight after long days

Ensure that the laces are adjusted properly to allow for natural foot swelling, or check if the shoe size needs to be adjusted for a wider fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristle brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh upper. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials.
  3. Sizing: These shoes are sized for UK youth feet. Refer to the size chart to ensure a proper fit, as they should be worn with athletic socks for optimal comfort.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
