FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The New Balance 650R Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and fashion. They are not engineered for high-impact sports like basketball or running, which require specialized athletic footwear.

How do I clean the white leather?

For general cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be applied gently. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the main difference between the 650R and the 550 model?

The 650R is often seen as a sleeker alternative to the 550, featuring a similar classic aesthetic but with design nuances and potentially variations in comfort features like the collar padding.

Can these be worn by both men and women?

Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adults of any gender.

How long does it take for the shoes to break in?

The break-in period can vary. Typically, wearing them for several short periods around the house for a few days should help the leather mold to your feet for a more comfortable fit.

What should I do if the shoes get wet?

If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.

Does this model come in other colors?

The New Balance 650R series is available in various colorways. While this guide focuses on the white variant (BB650RCL), other colors might be available depending on the season and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise during wear.

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try wearing them for a few more sessions, or a light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Leather appears dry or creased.

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner to the affected areas and gently buff. Ensure the shoes are not stored in excessively dry conditions.

Sizing feels slightly off.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if the fit is suitable for your foot type. Different New Balance models may have slight variations in fit.
