FAQs
Are New Balance 850 trainers true to size?
Generally, the 850 series fits standard. If you are between sizes, we recommend trying on both to ensure the best fit for your specific foot shape.
Can I use these for running?
While durable, the 850 is a lifestyle sneaker. We recommend dedicated performance models if you require specific arch support or cushioning for long-distance running.
How do I clean the gold embroidery?
Gently dab the area with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or chemical cleaners to preserve the metallic finish.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 850 is designed to be a unisex trainer suitable for various foot widths and styles.
Does this model have the large 'N' logo?
No, the 850 is specifically known for being one of the first models to remove the large lateral 'N' logo for a more minimalist look.
How should I store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colours from fading and the materials from becoming brittle.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on mesh fabric
Use a dry, soft brush to gently remove surface debris before attempting to spot clean.
Creasing in the upper
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the material retain its shape.
Laces becoming undone
Ensure they are double-knotted or replaced with textured laces if you prefer additional security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. To ensure longevity, keep the mesh upper free of debris using a soft-bristled brush. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this may compromise the embroidered detailing and the structural integrity of the wavy overlays. If the shoes become stained, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to spot-clean the affected areas, and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping.
