FAQs

How do I clean my New Balance 740 sneakers?

Use a soft brush or damp cloth with a mild soap and water solution for the mesh and synthetic parts. Air dry them away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

Is the New Balance 740 suitable for running?

The 740 is inspired by 2000s running shoes and features ABZORB cushioning, making it comfortable for daily wear and light running. However, it's primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker rather than for high-performance athletic training.

What does ABZORB cushioning mean?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that provides superior shock absorption and cushioning, helping to reduce impact forces during walking or light activities, contributing to overall comfort.

Are these shoes true to size?

New Balance shoes generally run true to size. For this specific variant, it is a UK 10.5. If you're unsure, refer to New Balance's official sizing chart and consider measuring your foot length.

What materials are used in the New Balance 740?

The New Balance 740 features an open knit mesh upper with synthetic overlays, an ABZORB midsole for cushioning, and a rubber outsole. The primary material listed for clothing is Polyester, indicating its use in the upper construction.

Can I wear these in all weather conditions?

The open knit mesh upper provides breathability but offers limited protection against rain or wet conditions. These sneakers are best suited for dry to moderately damp environments. They are not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

My shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure you have the correct size. The 740 features a traditional lace-up closure; adjust the lacing tension to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed.

My shoes get dirty quickly.

The open knit mesh upper is prone to collecting dust and dirt. Regularly clean your sneakers using a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner according to its instructions.

The cushioning doesn't feel as responsive as before.

Over time, all cushioning materials can compress. Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (daily wear/light activity). If they are old, consider that cushioning naturally degrades with extensive use.

There's a squeaking sound when I walk.

Squeaking can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and reinserting it. If the issue persists, the squeak might be coming from the sole material, which usually resolves with continued wear.

Care

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 740 sneakers, follow these general care guidelines:

  • Cleaning: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub away dirt and stains. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the materials and colors.
  • Drying: Always air dry your sneakers at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to warp or adhesives to weaken.
  • Odour Control: If desired, use shoe deodorizers or place dryer sheets inside the shoes when not in use to help absorb moisture and odors.
  • Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and material degradation.
