Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 740 trainers are designed for active kids who need a reliable, comfortable shoe for daily wear. Inspired by 2000s running aesthetics, these trainers combine a breathable open knit mesh upper with a stylish, modern silhouette that looks as good on the playground as it does at school. While they offer excellent versatility and comfort, users should note that the light grey and pink color scheme may show dirt more quickly than darker footwear options.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

Yes, they are designed as daily trainers with running-inspired cushioning, making them perfect for play and general active use.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard UK children's sizing. We recommend leaving about a thumb-width of space at the front for growth.

Can these be machine washed?

No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the trainers. Spot cleaning is the recommended method.

Is the material waterproof?

No, the open knit mesh is designed for breathability and is not waterproof.

Are they unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 740 design and colorway are suitable for all children regardless of gender.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming untied frequently

Use a double-knot or consider replacing them with elastic 'no-tie' laces for younger children.

Surface stains on the mesh

Gently dab with a mixture of mild detergent and water using a microfiber cloth; avoid heavy scrubbing.

Foot discomfort during long wear

Check that the shoe size is correct and ensure socks are moisture-wicking to prevent bunching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly breathable construction ideal for all-day wear
  • Lightweight design prevents fatigue during play
  • Versatile style pairs easily with most casual outfits
  • Reliable support from the segmented midsole

Cons

  • Light-colored materials can show scuffs and dirt
  • Limited to specific sizing for children's feet
  • Mesh material requires more careful cleaning than leather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lace-up trainers, ensure you have the correct UK size for your child to prevent slipping or rubbing. To maintain the aesthetic of the grey and pink colorway, we recommend applying a water and stain repellent spray before the first use. If the shoes become dirty, gently brush off loose mud using a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, spot clean the mesh upper with mild soap and cold water—never submerge them in a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the adhesives and mesh material. Always air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
