FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While the design is inspired by 80s basketball shoes, the 950 is a lifestyle model. It does not provide the specialized support or grip needed for competitive play.
Do the 950s run true to size?
The New Balance 950 is designed with a wide toe box, which generally offers a more spacious fit than performance-focused athletic shoes.
How do I maintain the beige colorway?
Use a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather before first wear to help prevent dirt from settling into the light material.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 950 is designed as a unisex model suitable for all genders.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.
Scuff marks on the beige leather
Gently rub with a soft eraser or a leather-safe cleaner to lift surface scuffs without damaging the finish.
Shoe feels too loose or tight
Adjust the tension of the laces along the length of the shoe; the wide toe box may require slightly tighter lacing at the mid-eyelets for better lockdown.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. To ensure your New Balance 950s stay in top condition:
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild leather cleaner for tougher stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are properly adjusted to take advantage of the wide toe box; avoid over-tightening the midfoot.
- Compatibility: These trainers pair best with casual trousers, denim, or athletic shorts, making them highly compatible with a relaxed wardrobe.
