FAQs

Is the New Balance 650R suitable for basketball?

While the 650R draws inspiration from vintage basketball footwear, it is designed for lifestyle and casual use. It does not contain the advanced performance technology required for modern competitive basketball.

How should I clean the white leather/material?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can yellow or damage the materials.

Does the 650R fit true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 650R generally fits true to the standard UK sizing listed.

Can I replace the insoles?

The insoles are generally removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required for additional comfort or support.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

The materials used are not waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray if you plan to wear them in damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Visible surface scuffs

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft-bristled brush with a mild cleaning solution to gently remove debris.

Creasing in the toe box

This is a natural occurrence in leather-based trainers. Use shoe trees when storing to help the shoe maintain its original shape.

Laces becoming untied

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double knot if the laces are stiff from being new.

  • Balanced cushioning provides comfort for all-day use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper features a predominantly white colorway, it is recommended to use a protective spray before the first wear to repel dirt and liquids. For general maintenance, wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth or use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution for deeper stains. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the structural integrity and adhesive bonds of the shoe. When sizing, ensure you consult the UK sizing standard to achieve the intended fit, as the 650R typically fits true to size for most adult users.
