FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is recommended to clean them by hand with a damp cloth and mild soap to prevent damage to the materials.

Can these be worn in the rain?

These shoes feature an open mesh upper, so they are not waterproof and are best worn in dry conditions.

Is the sizing standard?

The New Balance 740 series fits consistently with standard youth sizing; however, it is always best to measure the foot against the manufacturer's size guide.

Are these suitable for running?

While they are inspired by 2000s running shoes, they are primarily designed for casual, everyday use rather than high-intensity athletic training.

What materials are the trainers made from?

The upper is constructed primarily from polyester mesh with synthetic structural overlays for added durability.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight after a long day

Adjust the laces to ensure pressure is distributed evenly across the bridge of the foot rather than pulling them too tight.

Visible dirt on the mesh

Use a dry soft-bristle brush to gently flick away dried mud before using a damp cloth for any remaining marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers are designed for a straightforward fit. To keep them in top condition, follow these simple care tips:

  1. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt from the mesh and overlays.
  2. Stain Removal: For spot cleaning, apply a mild detergent diluted with water using a soft cloth, then air dry away from direct heat sources.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the polyester and mesh materials.
  4. Avoid Washing Machines: To preserve the structural integrity and adhesives, avoid placing these shoes in a washing machine or dryer.
