FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 740 is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual wear and walking, rather than for dedicated long-distance running.
How do I ensure the right fit?
It is recommended to try these on in the afternoon when your feet are at their largest, ensuring about a thumbnail's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the provided insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the cushioning properties. Please use manual spot-cleaning methods.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper is constructed from breathable mesh with synthetic overlays for added durability and style.
Troubleshooting
The trainers feel tight across the midfoot
Try re-lacing the shoes using a 'window' lacing technique to relieve pressure on the top of the foot.
Visible dirt on the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before using a damp cloth; avoid scrubbing aggressively to prevent fraying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; simply adjust the laces to your preferred tension upon first wear. To maintain the appearance and functionality of your New Balance 740s, it is recommended to spot clean the mesh and synthetic areas with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat and heavy agitation can compromise the integrity of the adhesive and the ABZORB foam. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
