FAQs

What age group are these trainers suitable for?

These New Balance 740 trainers are specifically designed for toddlers, providing the comfort, support, and durability needed for their developmental stage and active lifestyle.

Are the bungee laces adjustable?

No, the bungee elastic laces are designed to provide a secure and snug fit without manual adjustment or tying. They stretch for easy entry and then contract to hold the foot comfortably in place.

How should I clean these trainers?

We recommend hand-washing the trainers using a damp cloth and mild soap. Gently wipe down the mesh and synthetic parts. Do not machine wash or use harsh cleaning agents. Allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat.

Are these trainers good for outdoor play?

Yes, with their durable synthetic overlays, breathable mesh, and grippy rubber outsole, these trainers are well-suited for playground activities, backyard adventures, and general outdoor play.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance midsole technology that provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning, offering superior comfort and protection for your child's feet during all their activities.

Do these trainers provide good support for growing feet?

Yes, they feature a padded collar for ankle support and an ABZORB midsole for cushioning and stability, all crucial for supporting the healthy development of toddler feet.

What size is this specific product?

This specific product is New Balance 740 Toddler Trainers - Brown - Size UK 13. Please refer to New Balance's official sizing guide for accurate measurements relative to your child's foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too loose or too tight on my child's foot.

While bungee laces offer convenience, they are not adjustable for specific tightness. Ensure you have the correct size for your child. Toddler feet grow quickly, so regularly check their shoe size. A professional fitting can help determine the best size.

The trainers get dirty very quickly during play.

These trainers are designed for active play, so getting dirty is normal. Refer to the 'Care' section for instructions on how to effectively clean the synthetic and mesh upper. Regular gentle cleaning will keep them looking good.

My child's feet seem to get sweaty in the trainers.

The trainers feature a breathable mesh upper designed to promote airflow. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks, such as cotton or moisture-wicking materials. If the issue persists, ensure the shoes are not too tight, which can restrict air circulation.

The grippy sole doesn't seem to provide enough traction on certain surfaces.

The grippy rubber outsole is designed for firm traction on most common play surfaces. However, no sole can guarantee slip-proof performance on all extremely slick or uneven surfaces (e.g., ice, heavily wet polished floors). Always supervise toddlers during play.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced comfort and cushioning for active toddlers with ABZORB midsole.
  • Easy to put on and take off thanks to bungee elastic laces, minimizing fuss.
  • Durable construction with synthetic overlays ideal for playground and outdoor activities.
  • Breathable mesh keeps feet cool and comfortable during extended wear.
  • Provides stable traction with a grippy rubber outsole, promoting confidence in movement.
  • Supportive padded collar for added ankle comfort.

Cons

  • Bungee laces are not adjustable for a customized tightness, relying on the elastic stretch.
  • The breathable mesh may offer limited protection in very wet or cold conditions.
  • Requires regular cleaning due to potential for dirt accumulation during active toddler use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting your toddler ready for their next adventure with the New Balance 740 trainers is simple:

  1. Open: Gently stretch the bungee elastic laces and open the shoe's collar.
  2. Slide Foot In: Guide your child's foot into the trainer, ensuring their heel is fully seated at the back.
  3. Adjust (Self-adjusting): The bungee laces will naturally contract to provide a snug and secure fit around the foot. There's no need for manual tying or adjusting.
  4. Check Fit: Ensure there is about a thumb's width space between your child's longest toe and the end of the shoe. The fit should feel secure but not restrictive.

Compatibility

  • Age Group: These trainers are designed for toddlers, providing the necessary support and cushioning for developing feet.
  • Activities: Ideal for everyday wear, playground activities, light running, and general outdoor play.
  • Surfaces: Suitable for various surfaces including grass, pavement, and playground flooring due to their grippy rubber outsole.

Care

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 740 Toddler Trainers:

  • Cleaning:
  1. Gently remove loose dirt or mud with a soft brush or dry cloth.
  2. Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with cool water.
  3. Dampen a cloth or sponge with the soapy water and gently wipe down the synthetic and mesh upper. Avoid saturating the material.
  4. Wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
  5. For the outsole, you can use a brush to scrub away dirt.
  • Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry completely at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or tumble dryers, as extreme heat can damage materials and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and materials.
