Care Instructions: To maintain the crisp white appearance and extend the life of your New Balance 740 trainers:
Regular Cleaning:
For light dirt, use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently brush away loose debris from the mesh and overlays.
Mix a small amount of mild detergent (like dish soap) with warm water.
Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with the soapy water and gently wipe down soiled areas. Avoid saturating the shoe.
For stubborn spots on the white mesh, a gentle spot cleaner designed for athletic shoes can be used.
Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand with soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag for machine washing on a delicate cycle.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them in direct sunlight or use a heat source (like a dryer or radiator), as this can damage materials.
Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing with paper can help them retain their shape.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is generally not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and adhesives.
