FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
The New Balance 740 series generally fits consistent with standard sizing, though the streamlined silhouette may feel slightly more snug than wider-fit models.
Can I run a marathon in these?
While based on a heritage running shoe, current advancements in running technology make other dedicated performance models more suitable for long-distance training.
How do I maintain the color brightness?
Store them out of direct sunlight when not in use to prevent UV-related color fading.
Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if required.
What is the best way to clean the mesh sections?
Gently dry-brush the mesh first to loosen dirt, then use a damp cloth with minimal soap if necessary.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty removing surface stains from mesh
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a very soft brush, moving in a circular motion.
Creasing appearing on the midsole
Midsole creasing is a natural result of the cushioning material compression during use and does not indicate a defect.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 740 trainers last, avoid submerging them in water or machine washing them, as this can damage the structural adhesives. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris from the open-knit mesh. For deeper cleaning, apply a mild, ph-neutral detergent diluted with water to a cloth and gently dab the affected areas. Always let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the midsole material over time.
