FAQs

How do I clean the New Balance 740 sneakers?

To clean, gently wipe the synthetic and mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid machine washing and allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, with their durable construction, comfortable ABZORB cushioning, and grippy sole, the New Balance 740 are ideal for daily school activities and playtime, providing both comfort and support.

Is the sizing true to fit for children?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. However, for growing children, it's always best to measure your child's foot and consult a New Balance size chart to ensure the most accurate and comfortable fit.

Do these shoes come with elastic laces or traditional laces?

This specific kids' model (Size 6) features a traditional lace closure, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit. Some infant sizes in the 740 series may incorporate elastic laces for ease of use.

What activities are these sneakers best for?

The New Balance 740 are versatile, making them perfect for a wide range of activities including running, jumping, playing at the park, everyday school activities, and general daily wear, providing comfort and support for active kids.

Are these sneakers waterproof?

No, the New Balance 740 sneakers are not waterproof. Their synthetic and mesh upper is designed for breathability, making them suitable for dry conditions. They are not intended for use in heavy rain or wet environments.

Troubleshooting

My child complains the shoes feel uncomfortable or too loose/tight.

First, ensure the laces are properly adjusted for a snug, yet comfortable, fit. Children's feet grow quickly, so regularly check your child's current shoe size against their foot measurements to ensure they haven't outgrown their shoes. Try the shoes on with the type of socks they usually wear.

The shoes appear dirty quickly, especially after outdoor play.

The synthetic and mesh materials are durable but can show dirt. Regular light cleaning is key. Wipe down the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap after each significant use. For stubborn marks, a soft brush can be used gently. Always air dry the shoes completely.

The laces come undone frequently during wear.

Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. You might also explore different lacing techniques, such as a surgeon's knot, which can provide a more secure hold for active children.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional cushioning for all-day comfort, thanks to the ABZORB midsole.
  • Highly durable construction, designed to withstand the demands of active children.
  • Breathable synthetic and mesh upper helps keep feet cool and dry.
  • Stylish retro design inspired by 2000s models, offering a trendy look.
  • Reliable grippy rubber tread ensures good traction and stability during play.

Cons

  • Traditional lace closure may require assistance for younger children learning to tie shoes.
  • Lighter-colored areas of the synthetic and mesh upper may show dirt easily, requiring regular cleaning.
  • As with all children's footwear, sizing requires frequent checks due to rapid foot growth.

Setup: To ensure the best fit, have your child wear socks similar to what they'll wear regularly. Loosen the laces, slide their foot in, and ensure their heel is seated comfortably at the back of the shoe. Tighten the laces from the bottom up, securing them firmly but not too tightly to allow for natural foot movement and circulation. Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between their longest toe and the end of the shoe. Compatibility: These New Balance 740 sneakers feature a unisex design and are suitable for a wide range of casual and active outfits. They are compatible with various sock types, from athletic to everyday cotton. Care: To clean your New Balance 740 sneakers, gently wipe the synthetic and mesh upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For tougher dirt, use a soft brush. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and cushioning. Allow the shoes to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
