FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The New Balance 740 series generally offers a standard width that fits most children comfortably, though individual foot shape varies.

Can these be machine washed?

We recommend hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap to preserve the life and shape of the materials.

Do these shoes come with bungee laces?

Some versions in the 740 series feature bungee laces, but you should verify the specific product title or images for the pair you are selecting.

Are they suitable for rainy weather?

While they are durable, they are not explicitly waterproof, so they may soak through in heavy rain or deep puddles.

What does the 9.5 UK size correspond to?

This is a standard children's sizing format in the UK; always check the size guide to match the CM or EU equivalent if needed.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight during the day

Ensure the laces or bungee closures are not tied too tightly; allow for natural foot swelling during activity.

Difficulty keeping the shoes clean

Apply a water-repellent spray designed for synthetic trainers to help repel surface dirt and liquid stains.

Insole sliding inside the shoe

Check if the factory insole has shifted; remove it, clear any debris inside the shoe, and re-insert firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the right fit is the most important part of setting up these trainers. Ensure your child is wearing the type of socks they would typically wear with the shoes when testing for size. To maintain the appearance of the grey and black finish, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or mud after outdoor use. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a mild soap solution and a damp cloth; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these processes can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity of the shoes over time.
