FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 740 generally fits true to standard adult sizing.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While based on a running silhouette, these are lifestyle trainers and are best suited for walking and everyday use rather than distance training.
Are they machine washable?
It is not recommended to wash them in a machine, as this can break down the adhesives and damage the mesh material.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the 740 series is designed as a unisex model suitable for all genders.
How do I maintain the grey and white colorway?
Using a fabric protector spray before the first wear can help repel stains and make future cleaning significantly easier.
Troubleshooting
Mesh upper is collecting dust or dirt
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry debris, then wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double-knot or check for lace tension; if they remain slippery, replacing with textured athletic laces can improve grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers last as long as possible, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because the upper is crafted from mesh, avoid heavy machine washing which can damage the synthetic fibers; instead, use a soft brush and a mild detergent to spot-clean visible dirt. The trainers feature a standard lacing system, allowing for a customizable fit across the instep. If you require extra arch support, the removable insole is compatible with most aftermarket orthotics.
