New Balance 740 - White - UK 8.5

The New Balance 740 offers excellent comfort and impact absorption due to its ABZORB midsole, making it suitable for light to moderate running, daily jogs, and walks. For very long distances or competitive running, specialized performance running shoes might be more appropriate.

For the polyester mesh, gently wipe with a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water and a small amount of mild soap or a sneaker-specific cleaner. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Let them air dry completely away from direct heat.

The ABZORB midsole is a proprietary New Balance technology that provides a blend of cushioning and compression resistance. It absorbs impact forces, protecting your joints and enhancing overall comfort during activity.

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. We recommend consulting the New Balance size chart if you are unsure, or trying them on with your typical running or walking socks. This specific model is a UK 8.5.

The open-knit mesh upper, while breathable, is not designed to be waterproof. While light drizzle is fine, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may result in wet feet. We recommend avoiding wet conditions to maintain shoe longevity and comfort.

The main material for the upper of this New Balance 740 model is polyester, combined with synthetic overlays for structure and durability.

Ensure you are wearing the appropriate size socks. If the issue persists, verify your foot measurements against New Balance's sizing guide. These sneakers are a UK 8.5.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area underneath, and reinserting it. A light dusting of baby powder under the insole can also help.

Ensure shoes are fully aired out between uses. Consider using anti-odor shoe sprays or cedar shoe trees. Regularly clean the insoles, or replace them if necessary, as they absorb much of the moisture.

White shoes naturally show dirt more easily. Regularly spot clean with a mild soap and damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution designed for polyester materials.
