Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 740s, especially given their Polyester and mesh construction.
- Spot Cleaning: For dirt or stains on the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and a mixture of mild soap (e.g., dish soap) and cool water. Gently scrub the affected area.
- Rinsing: Wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes. Stuff them with paper towels or newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as this can damage materials.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes when not in use.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and adhesives.
- Regular Wiping: For general maintenance, wipe down the rubber outsole and midsoles regularly with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
