FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the New Balance 740 draws inspiration from classic runners and features advanced cushioning like ABZORB and N-ergy, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe for everyday comfort and casual wear, not for high-performance athletic running.
How do I determine my correct size?
The New Balance 740 generally fits true to size. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit, or consulting a New Balance size guide if purchasing online. This specific model is a UK 7.5.
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that provides exceptional shock absorption, dispersing impact forces and offering a soft, comfortable feel underfoot.
What is N-ergy outsole technology?
N-ergy is a highly responsive cushioning material used in the outsole that provides superior shock absorption and energy return, enhancing comfort and support during movement.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The airy mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. While they can handle light dampness, prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the materials and maintain foot comfort. A water-repellent spray can offer some protection.
How do I clean the white color effectively?
For general cleaning, wipe the mesh with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. For any leather parts, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Address stains promptly and allow the shoes to air dry completely.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or rub.
Ensure you have the correct size. New shoes may require a short break-in period. Try different sock thicknesses or lacing techniques to adjust the fit.
Shoes get dirty easily, especially the white color.
Regularly wipe down shoes after wear with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush for mesh, and a dedicated leather cleaner for leather components. Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for both mesh and leather.
Soles feel less cushioned over time.
The cushioning in shoes naturally compresses with extended wear. While ABZORB and N-ergy are durable, replacing insoles can sometimes refresh the feel. Consider shoe replacement after significant wear.
Unpleasant odor from shoes.
Ensure shoes are fully dry after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside and let it sit overnight. Allow shoes to air out between uses.

Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Gently brush off any loose dirt or dust with a soft brush. For the airy mesh upper, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water to wipe down soiled areas. Rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials.
- Leather Components: If your specific pair has leather elements (the New Balance 740 - White - UK 7.5 features some leather), use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to clean and protect these sections, following the product's instructions.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the shoe's structure and materials.
