FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?
These New Balance 740 BUNGEE trainers are specifically designed for infants, typically those wearing a UK size 4.
Can the bungee closure be adjusted?
No, the bungee closure system is designed for quick and easy slip-on/slip-off functionality. It does not allow for adjustable tightening like traditional laces.
Are these trainers suitable for all types of weather?
The leather upper offers some natural resistance to light moisture. However, they are not waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain or deep puddles should be avoided to protect the material.
How do I clean the leather material?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For dirtier areas, a small amount of mild soap can be used. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Are these trainers good for infants who are just learning to walk?
Yes, they are designed with infants in mind, offering comfort and support suitable for crawling, cruising, and taking those important first steps.

Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct UK size 4. The bungee closure is fixed for easy on/off and does not adjust for tightness like traditional laces. Check for socks or foot swelling that might affect fit.
Bungee closure seems stiff or difficult to open/close
Gently inspect the bungee for any trapped debris or twists. Avoid forcing it. A light application of a silicone-based lubricant on the bungee mechanism (avoiding the leather) might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
Leather appears scuffed or dull
Leather can show wear with active use. Regularly wipe with a damp cloth. For deeper scuffs, a leather conditioner or polish designed for children's footwear can help restore its appearance. Test any product on a small, hidden area first.
Unpleasant odor from trainers
Allow the trainers to air out thoroughly after each use. Ensure your infant's feet are clean and dry before putting on the trainers. You can also place odor-absorbing inserts or baking soda in a cloth pouch inside the trainers overnight.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 740 BUNGEE trainers:
- Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs on the leather upper, wipe gently with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a small amount of mild soap mixed with water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not submerge the trainers in water, as this can affect the leather and overall structure.
