The New Balance 740 trainers are designed as a daily runner, offering excellent comfort and support for casual running, walking, and everyday wear. While they perform well for general activities, they are not specifically optimized for competitive long-distance races or high-intensity athletic training where specialized features might be required.
New Balance shoes generally run true to size for most individuals. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, or have wider feet, consider trying half a size up. Always try them on with the socks you typically wear.
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance foam material that provides excellent cushioning and absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance. It helps to reduce stress on your joints and provides a more comfortable ride.
No, it is not recommended to machine wash your trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please refer to the 'Care & Maintenance' section for proper cleaning instructions.
The New Balance 740 trainers feature a breathable mesh and synthetic upper, which provides ventilation but is not designed to be waterproof. They can withstand light splashes, but for heavy rain or wet conditions, your feet may get wet.
With their robust rubber outsole, the New Balance 740 trainers provide reliable grip on most common urban surfaces such as pavement, asphalt, sidewalks, and light indoor tracks. They are not specifically designed for rough trails or extreme off-road conditions.
The reflective elements are integrated into the design to enhance your visibility in low-light conditions. This feature adds a layer of safety, particularly if you're walking or running during dawn, dusk, or at night near traffic.
Adjust the lacing system. Try different lacing techniques to customize the fit. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks.
Check your sock choice for cushioning and material. Ensure the trainers are laced correctly, not too tight. Allow for a break-in period. If issues persist, consider trying alternative insoles.
Often caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning underneath it, and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch to reduce friction. Check if the squeak is from the outsole on specific surfaces.
Ensure you are tying a proper double knot. Consider investing in laces with a rougher texture, or try different lacing methods that offer more security.
Remove insoles after wear to allow them to air out. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or insert cedar shoe trees. Ensure trainers are completely dry before storing. Hand wash insoles if necessary.
