FAQs
How do I clean my New Balance 740 sneakers?
Gently brush off loose dirt. For stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush on the mesh and synthetic overlays. Air dry thoroughly, away from direct heat.
Are these shoes suitable for running or intense sports?
The New Balance 740 is primarily designed for casual wear and general comfort. While it offers excellent cushioning with the ABZORB midsole, it's not specifically engineered for high-performance running or intense sports.
What does 'ABZORB midsole' mean?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance foam blend that provides superior cushioning and compression resistance. It helps absorb impact forces, reducing stress on your feet and joints during wear.
Is the sizing true to fit?
New Balance 740 typically runs true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary. We recommend trying them on or consulting a New Balance size guide if you are unsure.
Are there other colors available besides white?
Yes, the New Balance 740 series is often available in a range of colors. Please check product listings for other available options, such as black or grey.
What materials are used in the upper part of the shoe?
The upper features an open knit mesh for breathability, combined with synthetic overlays for structure and durability. It also includes reflective accents and a moulded TPU ‘N’ logo.
Can I put my New Balance 740s in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Always hand clean for best results.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear dirty quickly due to white color.
Regularly wipe down the mesh and synthetic surfaces with a damp cloth after each wear. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then air dry.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to better accommodate your foot shape. Wearing appropriate socks can also help prevent rubbing.
Reflective accents seem dull or less visible.
Gently clean the reflective areas with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid scrubbing too hard or using abrasive cleaners, which can damage the reflective coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your New Balance 740 sneakers is straightforward: simply lace them up to your desired tightness. Ensure the laces are securely tied to prevent tripping and provide optimal foot support. The lace-up closure allows for a customizable fit, accommodating various foot shapes.
Compatibility
These sneakers feature a unisex design, making them suitable for both men and women. They are available in various UK sizes to ensure a comfortable fit for adults. Always refer to a New Balance sizing chart if unsure about your exact size, as fit can vary slightly between models.
Care
Given the white colour, proper care is crucial to maintain their pristine appearance:
- Regular Cleaning: For general dirt and dust, gently brush the mesh upper and synthetic overlays with a soft-bristled brush.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a mild soap mixed with cool water. Apply with a soft cloth or sponge, gently scrubbing the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the materials and reflective accents.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed separately or replaced if heavily soiled.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
