FAQs

What is ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam cushioning technology that provides superior shock absorption. It combines cushioning with compression resistance to help minimize impact during active movements, providing a softer and more comfortable feel.

Are these shoes suitable for sports or just casual wear?

The New Balance 740 Junior is designed for everyday use and active play, making it suitable for playground activities, running, and general recreational use. While not a specialized performance sports shoe, its durable construction and cushioning make it versatile for active kids.

How do I clean the New Balance 740 Junior sneakers?

To clean, gently brush off loose dirt. Use a soft cloth with a mixture of mild detergent and cold water to wipe down the textile and synthetic upper. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.

What age group are these shoes designed for?

These shoes are specifically designed for juniors, which typically refers to older children. The sizing (e.g., UK size 5) corresponds to children's foot sizes.

Do these shoes run true to size?

New Balance junior sizing is generally consistent, but fit can vary based on individual foot shape. It's always recommended to measure your child's foot and consult the New Balance size chart if available, or try them on to ensure the best fit. Info needed: [Provide a link to a size chart if one is available from New Balance].

Do these shoes have arch support?

The New Balance 740 Junior features an ABZORB midsole that provides cushioning and some degree of inherent support. For specific arch support needs, consult a pediatrician or podiatrist.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lace tension. Ensure the foot is properly seated in the heel counter before tightening. For consistent issues, verify the shoe size.

Shoes get dirty quickly.

Regularly clean the shoes as per the care instructions. For stubborn marks, a gentle shoe cleaner designed for synthetic and textile materials can be used.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder underneath it.

Foot odor develops.

Ensure your child wears moisture-wicking socks. Remove insoles periodically to allow them to air out. Shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoes overnight can help absorb odors.
