FAQs

What age group are these trainers suitable for?

These trainers are designed for toddlers and young children, typically fitting the 'infant' and 'toddler' age groups. This specific model is a UK Size 6.

Are the New Balance 740 trainers good for active play?

Yes, with their durable construction, breathable mesh, and Abzorb cushioning, they are well-suited for active play, providing comfort and support for running, jumping, and everyday adventures.

How do I clean the New Balance 740 trainers?

We recommend wiping the leather and mesh surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry thoroughly. Do not machine wash or put them in a dryer.

What is Abzorb cushioning?

Abzorb is a proprietary New Balance foam blend that provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to superior comfort and impact protection.

Are the laces adjustable?

The New Balance 740 trainers feature elastic laces, which are designed for an easy slip-on and off fit. They do not offer the same precise tightening adjustment as traditional tie laces.

What materials are used in these trainers?

The trainers feature breathable mesh uppers combined with angular leather overlays for durability and style.

Troubleshooting

Trainers appear dirty quickly.

Wipe down the mesh and leather surfaces regularly with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Spot clean stains as they occur.

Fit feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure your child's foot is properly measured to match the size guide. Make sure socks aren't too thick or thin, which can alter the fit. The elastic laces are for easy-on, not adjustable tightening; ensure the shoe itself is the correct size.

Foot odor develops.

Ensure the trainers are fully air-dried after use. Consider using moisture-wicking socks and allowing shoes to air out overnight. If persistent, try shoe deodorizers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to Put On: Elastic laces simplify the process for young children and parents.
  • Superior Comfort: Abzorb cushioning delivers excellent comfort for extended wear and active play.
  • Good Breathability: Mesh upper helps prevent overheating.
  • Classic Style: Homage to early 2000s design, appealing and timeless.
  • Reliable for Active Kids: Built to last through daily adventures.

Cons

  • Specific Care Needed: As with most leather and mesh trainers, regular cleaning is required to maintain appearance.
  • Lace Adjustability: Elastic laces prioritize easy wear over precise tightness adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Putting On: Simply slide your child's foot into the trainer. The elastic laces allow for easy entry without needing to tie or untie.
  2. Checking Fit: Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe for optimal comfort and growth.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for toddlers and young children across various sizes (e.g., UK Size 6 for this specific model, with other infant/toddler sizes available).
  • `Unisex` design suitable for all children.
  • The classic `Black` colourway makes them versatile for various outfits and occasions.

Care:

  • Cleaning: To clean, wipe the `leather` and `mesh` surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  • Maintenance: Regularly check for any debris in the sole treads and remove it to maintain grip.
