FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for basketball?
While the 950 is inspired by 80s basketball heritage, it is designed as a lifestyle trainer and not for competitive court performance.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using machine washing.
Does the wide toe box mean I should size down?
No, it is recommended to stick to your standard UK shoe size for the best balance of length and width.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced with any similar length flat lace if they become worn.
Is the material waterproof?
The leather upper is water-resistant, but it is not waterproof; avoid wearing them in heavy rain to prevent damage to the material.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 950 series is categorized as unisex.
Troubleshooting
Leather showing minor scuffs
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft eraser to gently buff out surface-level marks.
Shoes feeling too stiff during break-in
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally conform to your foot shape.
Insole comfort diminished over time
Consider replacing the original factory insole with an aftermarket orthotic insert if additional arch support is needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature leather uppers, proper maintenance is essential. To keep your New Balance 950s in optimal condition, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth after use to remove surface dirt. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners which can strip the leather of its finish. For long-term care, utilize a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent cracking. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as intense heat can warp the leather and damage the adhesive bonds.
