FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for very young children who cannot tie their own laces?
While the trainers feature a lace-up closure for a secure fit, younger children may require assistance from an adult to tie them. For children learning to dress independently, an alternative closure system might be considered.
What is the best way to clean these trainers?
Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. For more stubborn dirt, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Always allow them to air dry naturally away from heat.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the child's longest toe and the end of the trainer. The heel should not slip excessively when walking. It's best to measure the child's feet if unsure.
Can these trainers be used for sports activities?
The New Balance 740 Lace trainers are designed for everyday wear and general active play. For specific sports requiring specialized footwear, such as basketball or running, dedicated sports shoes would be more appropriate.
What material are the trainers made from?
The specific materials can vary slightly depending on the exact model, but typically feature a combination of synthetic materials, leather, or suede for the upper and a rubber sole for durability and traction.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The New Balance 740 series is available in a variety of colorways. This particular model is the Grey/Yellow variant, but other color options may exist for the 740 line.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are threaded evenly and pulled tight. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, textured laces for better grip.
Trainers appear to be too tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and have the child try them on again. Ensure the foot is positioned correctly within the shoe. Check if the size is appropriate, as children's feet grow quickly.
Dirt or scuff marks are hard to remove
Try a slightly stronger, yet still mild, soap solution. For persistent marks on rubber soles, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
