Full details
The New Balance 740 Trainers are designed for individuals who appreciate a blend of 2000s-inspired athletic aesthetics and everyday comfort. Returning from the archives, these trainers offer a durable, reliable build perfect for daily wear, whether you are running or navigating city streets.

FAQs
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 740 is designed as a unisex model, fitting a wide range of foot shapes.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While they feature design elements from performance runners, they are optimized for everyday lifestyle use rather than professional distance training.
How do I determine my size?
New Balance 740 trainers generally follow standard UK sizing; refer to our size guide to match your measurements to the UK scale provided.
Are these shoes machine washable?
We recommend against machine washing, as it can damage the structural integrity and materials of the sneaker.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper consists of an open-knit mesh paired with synthetic angular overlays for durability and support.
Troubleshooting
The mesh is getting dirty quickly.
Apply a specialized sneaker protector spray to create a barrier against dust and liquids, making spot cleaning easier.
The fit feels slightly tight.
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'heel lock' or 'loose loop' style to distribute pressure more evenly across the top of the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 Trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: These shoes generally fit true to size. Wear them indoors for a few hours before committing to a full day of activity to ensure the fit is perfect.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust from the mesh. For deeper cleaning, wipe down the synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white and grey materials from yellowing or fading over time.
- Compatibility: The neutral white and grey palette makes these an excellent match for casual denim, joggers, or athletic wear.
