Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the foam and upper materials to contour to your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents.
- Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never place near a direct heat source, such as a radiator or heater, as this can degrade the midsole cushioning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the grey and white components.
