FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the New Balance 950 is designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer, not for running or professional sports.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 950 is designed as a unisex model, fitting a wide range of foot types.
How do I clean the white sections?
A gentle leather-safe cleaner or a mix of water and mild dish soap on a soft cloth works best for light colors.
Does the leather stretch over time?
Like most leather footwear, they may soften and conform slightly to your foot shape after being broken in.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but the wide toe box may feel slightly more spacious than other performance-oriented models.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuffs or light marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to gently buff out the mark.
Foot feels slightly loose in the toe area
Consider using a thicker insole or adjusting the lacing pattern to provide a more secure midfoot lockdown.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are made from leather, proper care is essential to maintain their appearance. For initial setup, ensure your socks are of an appropriate thickness to match your size; if you prefer more room, the 950's wide toe box accommodates most standard widths comfortably. To clean, wipe the leather surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and debris. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the leather finish. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent cracking.
