FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance 740 trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running and may not provide the specialized support or durability required for such high-impact events.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Measure the length of your foot from the heel to the tip of your longest toe. Compare this measurement to the New Balance size chart, which typically provides equivalent UK sizes. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between models.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

The trainers feature textile and synthetic uppers. While they offer some protection, they are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may saturate the materials and reduce comfort.

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB midsole?

The ABZORB midsole is engineered to provide superior shock absorption and cushioning. It helps to reduce the impact forces on your feet and joints during activity, contributing to overall comfort.

How should I clean the grey and silver colorway?

Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Ensure you wipe away any excess moisture. For the outsole, remove dirt with a brush or damp cloth. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What kind of activities are these trainers best for?

These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, walking, light gym sessions, and casual activities. They provide comfort and support for general movement and active lifestyles.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled excessively tight. If the shoe is still too tight, consider if it's the correct size or if the materials need a short break-in period.

Slipping during activity

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the surface is wet or particularly smooth, grip may be reduced. For indoor use, check if the floor surface is incompatible with rubber soles.

Discomfort after wearing

Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, the fit might not be suitable for your foot type.
