FAQs
Are New Balance 740s suitable for running or sports?
The New Balance 740 is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While the ABZORB cushioning offers good support, it is not specifically engineered for high-impact running or intensive sports performance.
How do I clean the white textile and synthetic upper?
Gently wipe down the upper with a soft cloth or sponge dampened with a mixture of mild soap and cold water. Avoid scrubbing aggressively. Let them air dry completely away from direct heat.
What is ABZORB technology?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance foam material that provides superior cushioning and absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance, enhancing overall comfort.
Are these sneakers true to size?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent. It's recommended to purchase your usual sneaker size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. This specific model is UK size 7.5.
Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?
The textile and synthetic upper of the 740 offers minimal water resistance. It's advisable to avoid heavy rain or very wet conditions to protect the materials and prolong the life of your sneakers.
What materials are used in the New Balance 740?
The upper is constructed from textile and synthetic materials, the midsole features ABZORB cushioning, and the outsole is made of rubber. The lining is black textile.
Troubleshooting
My sneakers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned across your foot. Experiment with different lacing patterns if standard lacing doesn't provide the desired fit. If discomfort persists, verify that you have the correct shoe size.
The white upper is getting dirty quickly.
The white textile and synthetic materials are prone to showing dirt. Regularly clean the upper using a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and water to prevent dirt build-up. Spot clean stains immediately for best results.
My feet feel hot or sweaty after prolonged wear.
While the open knit mesh provides breathability, wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks can significantly enhance comfort. Ensure laces aren't overly tight, which can restrict air circulation. Allow shoes to air out after each wear.
The rubber outsole seems to be losing grip.
Check the outsole for embedded debris (small stones, mud) and clean it thoroughly with a stiff brush and water. If the tread appears significantly worn down, it might indicate it's time to consider a replacement.
