FAQs

Are the New Balance 740 Trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the 740s are primarily designed for casual wear and daily comfort. For intense running, dedicated performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance or compare with your existing footwear. This model is unisex, so consider standard unisex sizing conventions.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, mesh, and sole construction. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from open knit mesh with suede overlays for structure and style.

What does 'segmented midsole' mean?

A segmented midsole is designed with distinct sections, often to provide flexibility and cushioning in specific areas of the foot.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or a breathable bag to protect them from dust and light.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This guide focuses on the Brown/Red colorway. Other color options may be available depending on the product line and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Discoloration of suede

Address stains immediately with a specialized suede cleaner. For general maintenance, use a suede brush regularly.

Mesh feels tight

Ensure laces are loosened before wearing. The mesh may stretch slightly with wear.

Dirt accumulation on midsole

Wipe the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth after wear. Use a soft brush for stubborn dirt.
