Sejarah Fesyen
Originally released in 2010 as a performance stability trainer, the 740 was designed for high-mileage road running. Its construction featured a dense midsole and breathable upper materials typical of the era's athletic technology. In 2024, the brand reintroduced the silhouette to the lifestyle market, reflecting a broader historical shift where technical sports equipment is repurposed as fashion. This transition highlights the cyclical nature of footwear trends and the preservation of functional design.
