FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for playing basketball?
While these sneakers are inspired by basketball designs, they are primarily intended for lifestyle and casual wear. They do not offer the same level of ankle support and performance features as dedicated basketball shoes.
How should I clean the 'White Cloud Gray' color?
Spot clean using a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners and machine washing to preserve the color and material integrity.
What is the warranty for New Balance shoes?
New Balance typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the official New Balance website or your purchase receipt for specific warranty terms and duration.
Do these shoes run true to size?
New Balance generally runs true to size for most customers. However, fit can be subjective. It is recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
These shoes are not waterproof. While a protective spray can offer some resistance, they are best worn in dry conditions to maintain their appearance and prevent damage.
What materials are the 650R made from?
The product description indicates a construction suitable for a sneaker, typically involving leather, synthetic leather, and rubber. Specific material composition may vary.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period if they feel snug.
Slight discoloration on white areas
Gently spot clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild detergent. Ensure you are not rubbing too aggressively.
Laces wear out
Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length and color, available at most shoe stores or online retailers.
