FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 is a lifestyle trainer designed for walking and casual wear, not for high-intensity athletic running.
How do I determine my size?
The 740 series typically fits true to size. Refer to the size guide for UK measurements to ensure the best fit.
Can I use custom orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the insole is generally removable, allowing you to insert your own orthotic devices if needed.
How do I clean the suede or leather portions?
Use a specialized leather or suede cleaner and a soft-bristled brush, following the instructions on the cleaning product packaging.
Are these waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray if you plan on wearing them in light rain.
Does the 740 come in different widths?
Availability varies by model; check the specific product listing to see if wide or narrow options are offered.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking that the lace material is dry and free of debris.
Mild surface staining
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a lightly dampened cloth with mild detergent to gently dab the area.
Discomfort during long periods of wear
Check if the laces are too tight across the bridge of the foot and adjust for better circulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 Trainers remain in top condition, start by lacing them securely to prevent heel slippage. These shoes are compatible with various casual and semi-sporty wardrobes, including denim, chinos, or athletic wear. For maintenance, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the structural integrity. Instead, gently clean the exterior with a soft brush or a damp cloth using mild soap. Air dry the shoes in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent material discoloration or warping.
