Getting started with your New Balance 740 sneakers is straightforward:
Unboxing: Remove the sneakers from their packaging.
Fitting: Have the child try on both shoes with socks normally worn. Ensure there's a thumb's width space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Lacing: Use the lace fastening to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Avoid overtightening or leaving them too loose.
Age Group: Specifically designed for children (Kids' sizing).
Gender: Unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls.
Activities: Ideal for everyday wear, casual play, school, and light athletic activities.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of the sneakers:
Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, wipe down the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn dirt, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used gently on the outsole and tougher areas.
Air Drying: Always air dry sneakers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
Odor Control: If odors develop, remove insoles (if removable) and allow shoes to air out. Baking soda can be sprinkled inside overnight to absorb odors.
