FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for playing basketball?
While inspired by basketball shoes, the 650R is designed primarily for casual wear. They may not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for intense on-court performance.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance or measure your foot length. This guide references UK size 10 (MPN: BB650RCE-100).
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, stitching, and adhesives. Hand clean using the methods described in the care section.
What is the main difference between the 650R and other New Balance trainers?
The 650R typically features a high-top silhouette and draws inspiration from classic 80s basketball designs, offering a distinct retro aesthetic compared to more modern or low-profile New Balance models.
How should I store my trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
What materials are the New Balance 650R trainers made from?
These trainers feature a leather upper and a rubber sole, common for durable lifestyle footwear.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in leather
Natural creasing is normal with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and ensure proper fit. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape when not in use.
Squeaking sound
Squeaking can sometimes occur from the tongue rubbing against the inner lining. Try adjusting the laces or applying a small amount of talcum powder to the underside of the tongue.
Discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean with appropriate leather care products as outlined in the care instructions.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Versatile color scheme that complements many outfits.
- Comfortable for casual walking and daily activities.
Cons
- May not provide sufficient support for intense athletic performance.
- Leather upper requires specific care to maintain appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply unbox and they are ready for wear.
Compatibility: The New Balance 650R trainers are designed as footwear for adults. They are unisex in design, though this specific variant (BB650RCE-100) is listed for men and is in UK size 10. They are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Cleaning the Soles: Use a brush or damp cloth to clean the rubber soles. Stubborn dirt can be removed with mild soap and water.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
