FAQs

Is the New Balance BB950 true to size?

The BB950 features a wide toe box design which generally provides a comfortable, standard fit for most adults.

Can these shoes be used for playing basketball?

While inspired by 80s court shoes, the BB950 is designed for lifestyle and casual use and lacks the high-impact support needed for competitive basketball.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dry, soft-bristle suede brush. Avoid water or liquid cleaners on the suede sections as it can cause discoloration.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the BB950 is a unisex model designed to fit a wide range of foot shapes.

Does the leather require a break-in period?

The tumbled leather is soft upon arrival, though it will naturally soften and conform more to your foot after a few wears.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from soft tumbled leather with accents made of high-quality suede.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede accents

Use a specialized suede brush or a clean pencil eraser to gently lift dirt from the nap without soaking the material.

Creasing on the leather upper

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.

Minor scuffs on the cream midsole

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently wipe away surface scuffs from the rubber outsole and midsole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality material blend of leather and suede
  • Timeless 80s basketball aesthetic
  • Comfortable fit with a wide toe box
  • Neutral colorway suitable for diverse styling
  • Robust rubber outsole for reliable grip

  • Suede elements are susceptible to staining
  • Requires regular cleaning to keep the light leather looking crisp
  • Not intended for high-performance sports activities

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the BB950 features a combination of tumbled leather and suede, maintaining the material integrity is essential. To keep the shoes in peak condition, avoid machine washing. For the leather portions, use a soft cloth with a mild leather cleaner. For the suede overlays on the toe, heel, and side logos, use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and revive the nap of the material. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the soft beige tones. Use a protective water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to guard against light rain and spills.
