Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 740 Trainer is designed for adults seeking a blend of 2000s-inspired aesthetics and contemporary comfort for daily streetwear or casual outings. It provides superior shock absorption through integrated cushioning technology, though users should note that the specific upper material composition—whether leather or polyester—varies depending on the size and stock availability, which may impact overall breathability and water resistance.

FAQs

Are the New Balance 740 trainers true to size?

Yes, they generally align with standard adult sizing for New Balance footwear.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature shock-absorbing technology, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.

How do I identify if my pair is leather or polyester?

Check the internal tag on the tongue or the product packaging, which will specify the primary material composition.

Is the sole non-marking?

The rubber outsole is durable and generally suitable for gym environments, though it is primarily designed for outdoor street use.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

They are not waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray if you plan to wear them in light rain.

Can I replace the insoles with orthotics?

Yes, the stock insoles are generally removable, making them compatible with most aftermarket orthotic inserts.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or debris on the midsole

Use a damp sponge with mild soap to gently scrub the white or grey portions of the midsole.

Odour buildup after heavy use

Remove the insoles to air out and use a fabric-safe sneaker deodorizer spray.

Laces becoming loose during the day

Ensure they are double-knotted or replace with performance-grade laces if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are lifestyle trainers, no technical setup is required. To ensure your New Balance 740s remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: For leather versions, wipe down with a soft, damp cloth and use leather-appropriate cleaner. For polyester versions, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt.
  2. Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, air-dry them naturally at room temperature. Avoid using direct heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the materials or damage the adhesive in the sole.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. If you have previously owned other New Balance 740 models, stick to your standard size for the most consistent fit.
