Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 950 is a sophisticated, minimalist sneaker designed for adults who appreciate a clean aesthetic inspired by classic basketball heritage. Featuring a premium blend of tumbled leather and suede, these trainers offer an elevated look suitable for casual daily wear, though the light 'Angora' and 'Oaty' colour palette requires careful maintenance to keep them looking pristine.

FAQs
Are these suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball archives, the 950 is primarily a lifestyle/casual trainer and is not designed for competitive court sports.
How do I clean the suede portions?
Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove dust. Do not saturate suede with water, as it can cause discolouration.
Do the 950s run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard New Balance sizing. If you have worn New Balance heritage models before, the same size is typically appropriate.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather, suede, and adhesive bonds of the shoe. Always clean by hand.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
The leather is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a protective spray to provide a barrier against light moisture.
What is the difference between the 950 and the 550?
The 950 takes cues from the 550 but offers a more pared-back, minimalist design profile.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather toe box
This is a natural characteristic of high-quality leather; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape and minimize deep creases.
Dirt on the suede panels
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft crepe brush to gently lift dry dirt without damaging the nap of the material.
Midsoles losing their vintage cream look
Avoid harsh chemical cleaners on the midsole; gently wipe with a cloth dampened with warm water and mild soap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 950 trainers maintain their aesthetic, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust from the suede sections. Use a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner for the smooth leather areas.
- Stain Prevention: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray before initial wear, keeping it away from the suede if the product is not specifically formulated for multi-material use.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause yellowing of the cream midsoles or fading of the white leather.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing; ensure you are matching your specific UK size, such as the 10.5, for optimal comfort.
