The New Balance Girls 740 Bungee Lace Trainers in Pink are the infant and young girls' version of the 740 silhouette, covering EU 21 through to EU 35 — a size run that spans from approximately 12–18 months through to age 7, making it one of the widest single-product size ranges in the New Balance girls' trainer line at Childsplay Clothing. The bungee lace closure — an elasticated cord with a toggle mechanism rather than tied laces — is the appropriate fastening system for this age range: toddlers and young children developing their independence can manage a bungee toggle themselves before they have the fine motor skills to tie laces, and parents can fasten and adjust the shoe quickly in the school-run or getting-ready context. The colourway is Pink Salt, the same muted, dusty rose-pink used in the older girls' 740 lace version, applied here to a smaller last and slightly adjusted construction proportioned for younger feet. The 740's lower-profile, streamlined silhouette translates well to smaller sizes because it doesn't rely on chunky midsole height for its aesthetic — it reads as proportionally correct on a toddler or young girl's foot rather than oversized. Mesh underlays with synthetic overlays keep the upper lightweight and structured. Girls-specific. SS2026. Made in China.
