FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 740 trainers are inspired by running shoe designs and are excellent for everyday wear, play, and light athletic activities. For competitive or intense running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

What material are the shoes made of?

The shoes feature an open-web mesh upper combined with leather overlays and a rubber sole.

How do I choose the right size?

It is best to measure your child's foot and compare it to the New Balance sizing chart. Consider the UK size provided, but also check the internal length of the shoe if possible.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may soak the mesh.

What is the warranty on these trainers?

Please refer to the retailer's or New Balance's official website for current warranty information, as this can vary by region and purchase date.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the New Balance 740 series is available in various colorways, including blue, grey, and white, often with secondary accent colors.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or rubbing

Ensure correct sizing by measuring the child's foot. Check if the laces are tied too tightly. Break in the shoes with short periods of wear.

Mesh appears dirty or discolored

Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. Ensure proper drying to prevent mildew.

Sole feels slippery

Check the tread for excessive wear. For minor slipperiness on smooth surfaces, a very light sanding of the sole might help, but proceed with caution.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex children's foot sizes. The leather and mesh materials offer good flexibility.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks on the leather, a mild leather cleaner can be used. Avoid soaking the mesh.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: A soft brush or damp cloth can be used to clean the rubber sole and segmented midsole.
