FAQs

What makes the New Balance 740 comfortable?

The New Balance 740 features ABZORB cushioning in the midsole and an N-ergy outsole, both designed to provide superior shock absorption and responsive support for everyday wear, ensuring all-day comfort.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

The 740 is designed as a retro runner for everyday wear, offering comfort and style. While it draws inspiration from classic running shoes, it is best suited for casual activities and light walking rather than high-intensity or long-distance running.

How should I clean my New Balance 740 shoes?

For the airy mesh upper, gently spot clean with a soft cloth or brush using a mild soap and cold water solution. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper features an airy mesh, typically made of Polyester, combined with dynamic design lines and metallic accents, providing breathability and a distinct look.

Is the sizing true to fit?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. It's recommended to choose your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on to ensure the best fit.

Are the 740s available in other colors or sizes?

Yes, the New Balance 740 series is available in various colors and sizes. Please check the product listings for other available variants to find your preferred option.

What does 'N-ergy outsole' mean?

The N-ergy outsole technology provides advanced shock absorption and a responsive feel underfoot. It contributes significantly to the shoe's overall comfort and support by dissipating impact forces effectively.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have the correct size for your foot. New Balance sizing is generally consistent, but individual foot shapes vary. Adjust lacing for a secure yet comfortable fit. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half size up or down.

Shoes appear dirty or scuffed (especially the white areas)

Regularly clean the mesh upper and sole using a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn marks, specific shoe cleaners designed for mesh and synthetic materials can be used. Avoid abrasive scrubbing.

Foot odor develops

Allow shoes to air out completely after each wear, ideally for at least 24 hours. Remove insoles occasionally to air them separately. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or sprays to maintain freshness.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the insoles, cleaning both surfaces, and ensuring they are completely dry before reinserting. A small amount of baby powder under the insole can also help.

Care

To prolong the life and appearance of your New Balance 740 shoes:

  • Cleaning the Mesh Upper: Gently spot clean the airy mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft brush or cloth using a mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with cold water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  • Cleaning the Outsole: Use a brush or damp cloth to wipe dirt and debris from the N-ergy outsole.
  • Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as high heat can damage materials and adhesives.
  • Odor Control: If needed, remove insoles and allow them to air out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda to absorb odors.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
