FAQs

What is the main inspiration for the New Balance 740 Trainers?

The design is inspired by classic 2000s running shoes, featuring elements like an open knit mesh upper, segmented midsole, and a streamlined silhouette.

Are these trainers suitable for actual running?

While they draw inspiration from running shoes, the 740s are best suited for casual wear and daily activities rather than high-performance athletic training.

How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a suede eraser for stains. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.

What is the material composition of the upper?

The upper is primarily made of open knit mesh with suede overlays for support and aesthetic appeal.

Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the New Balance 740 Trainers are designed as unisex footwear for adults.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot if possible. Consider trying them on if purchasing in-store, or check customer reviews for insights on fit.

What is the main benefit of the segmented midsole?

The segmented midsole contributes to the trainer's retro aesthetic while providing cushioning and support for comfortable daily wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider wearing thinner socks. If the issue persists, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to clean dry dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or consult specialized suede cleaning products. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Mesh material shows wear

Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth. Avoid excessive stretching or snagging the material to prolong its life.
