FAQs
Are the New Balance 950 trainers suitable for running?
No, these are designed as lifestyle trainers inspired by court heritage and lack the technical cushioning required for running.
Is the material waterproof?
The upper is made of leather, which provides some natural water resistance, but it is not considered waterproof.
Can I use an insole insert?
Yes, the wide toe box and general construction allow for the use of most standard aftermarket orthotic insoles.
How do I choose the right size?
The 950 series typically fits true to standard UK adult sizing; if you prefer extra room, the wide toe box design makes them very accommodating.
What is the primary material used?
The outer construction features high-quality leather for both durability and the signature retro look.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 950 series is marketed as a unisex trainer.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs or dirt on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth followed by a gentle rub with a soft, clean sponge.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the leather's shape.
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets properly and double-knot if necessary to maintain tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 950 trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes are designed with a wide toe box, so ensure you verify your UK foot size, as the fit is intended to be roomy.
- Cleaning: Use a dry soft brush to remove loose dirt from the leather surface. For deeper cleaning, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Leather Care: Apply a leather-safe conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain the beige and green color vibrancy.
