FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 is primarily a lifestyle trainer. While it provides good comfort, it is not optimized for high-intensity running or long-distance jogging.
How do I determine my correct size?
The model is listed in UK adult sizes. We recommend selecting your standard trainer size, keeping in mind the padded collar design.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural foam components of the midsole. Always clean by hand.
What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB midsole?
The ABZORB midsole provides superior shock absorption, which helps reduce impact forces on your joints while walking.
Do these shoes come in other colors?
This specific series is primarily available in white, often with secondary accents like silver.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied too easily
Ensure you are using a double knot or check if the laces are worn down and need replacement.
Surface marks on the white exterior
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a gentle eraser to address small scuffs on the upper material.
Feeling discomfort after long wear
Re-adjust the lace tension and ensure you are wearing socks of appropriate thickness for your foot arch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Setup: Adjust the laces to your preferred tension before your first wear. The padded collar should feel snug but not restrictive.
- Compatibility: These are standard-width adult trainers suitable for most everyday casual activities.
- Care: Because of the white finish, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose surface dirt after each wear. For deeper cleans, spot-treat stains with a mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid machine washing or drying, as these processes can degrade the cushioning materials.
