Full details

The New Balance 740 trainers are ideal for adults seeking a comfortable, stylish, and versatile everyday shoe with a nod to 2000s running heritage. Their key benefit lies in combining retro aesthetics with modern comfort features, making them suitable for casual wear and light activities. A potential caveat is that while inspired by running shoes, they are best suited for everyday use rather than intense athletic performance. These trainers feature an open knit mesh upper, a segmented midsole for cushioning, and a streamlined silhouette, updated with eye-catching two-tone mesh and corner overlays for a distinct look.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. Trying them on indoors is also advised to ensure a comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes indoors with appropriate socks for a short period to allow them to break in. If they remain uncomfortable, double-check the size and consider if a different size or width is needed.

Suede material looks dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.

Mesh upper appears discolored

Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing that could damage the material. Always air dry.

Sole shows signs of wear

The segmented sole is designed for flexibility and cushioning. For general wear, this is normal. If excessive wear or separation occurs prematurely, contact customer support.
