FAQs
Are the New Balance 740 trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, but if you have wider feet, you may consider a half-size up to account for the streamlined silhouette.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While based on a running archive, these are currently positioned as lifestyle trainers. They are not recommended for high-mileage training.
How do I best clean the suede or overlay materials?
Use a dry brush to remove loose dirt from the overlays, and use a dedicated suede or synthetic-safe cleaner for spots.
Are these shoes suitable for all genders?
Yes, the New Balance 740 is designed as a unisex model, offering a versatile fit for everyone.
Can I replace the insoles with orthotics?
Yes, the provided insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on white mesh areas
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap mixture and a soft cloth to dab the area; avoid scrubbing harshly.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a natural result of wear; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape of the upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers remain in excellent condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the mesh fabrics. For daily care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and debris from the mesh areas. If you encounter stains, spot clean gently with a mild detergent and a damp cloth; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as these can compromise the structural integrity of the overlays and midsole foam. The unisex fit accommodates standard adult sizing, but we recommend measuring your feet while wearing the socks you intend to use for the best fit.
