Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are new, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thinner socks.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a dry suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove loose dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Discoloration on mesh or suede

Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for prolonged periods. Clean gently with appropriate cleaners for suede and mesh as per care instructions.

  • Combination of suede and mesh offers both durability and breathability.
  • Comfortable for daily wear due to segmented midsole cushioning.
  • Unique colorway and angular overlays provide a distinctive aesthetic.
  • Suitable for a wide range of adult foot sizes.

Cons

  • Suede material may require more frequent cleaning and maintenance than synthetic alternatives.
  • The retro design might not appeal to those seeking highly modern athletic footwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: The New Balance 740 trainers are designed for unisex adult use and are compatible with standard casual wear. They are not specifically designed for specialized sports activities beyond light training.

Care Instructions:

  • Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dirt and revive the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid getting suede excessively wet.
