FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While based on a high-mileage running model, this lifestyle version is best suited for walking and casual activity rather than intense, long-distance training.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Spot clean using a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The New Balance 740 follows standard adult trainer sizing. If you have worn New Balance before, your usual size is recommended.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, this model is designed for a unisex fit, accommodating a wide range of foot shapes.
What is the primary material used?
The shoe features an open mesh upper with structural corner inlays and a resilient, segmented foam midsole.
Troubleshooting
Mesh gets dirty easily
Use a soft brush to remove loose debris after each wear to prevent dirt from embedding into the fibers.
Inner lining feels damp
Ensure the shoes are allowed to air out fully between wears by removing the insoles if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 740 trainers, follow these care steps:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off dry dirt using a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the mesh material.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this may warp the midsole or fade the colors.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup in the mesh.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. For the best experience, wear with cotton-blend socks to complement the shoe's breathability.
