New Balance revives another archival classic with the return of the New Balance 740. Originally launched in the early 2010s, this mesh runner gets a modern refresh. The latest update arrives in a sleek “Blue Agate” colorway, blending vintage appeal with contemporary design.

The New Balance 740 “Blue Agate” features a breathable two-tone open mesh upper. White sandwich mesh overlays add texture and enhance airflow. Metallic Silver leather accents appear on the mudguard, eyelets, and heel, delivering a retro Y2K-inspired aesthetic. Vibrant blue details highlight the midfoot N logo, lace loops, and branding for a bold contrast.

Built for both style and performance, the sneaker boasts a white Abzorb-cushioned midsole. This technology ensures superior impact absorption for all-day comfort. The heel and midfoot shank feature blue accents, seamlessly connecting to the tonal blue rubber outsole. This durable outsole enhances traction and stability, making it ideal for casual wear.

New Balance maintains its commitment to quality by keeping key design elements intact. The combination of lightweight materials and cushioning provides a smooth, comfortable ride. Whether for running errands or everyday styling, the 740 “Blue Agate” delivers versatility.

The New Balance 740 “Blue Agate” is set to launch on January 31, 2025. It will be available at select New Balance retailers and online at NewBalance.com. The retail price is $110 USD.

New Balance continues to honor its legacy while introducing fresh takes on classic models. The 740’s return in “Blue Agate” proves the brand’s ability to balance heritage with innovation.
