FAQs
Is the New Balance 850 suitable for running?
While the 850 is inspired by performance designs, it is intended primarily for lifestyle and casual wear rather than dedicated high-intensity athletics.
Does this model feature the standard 'N' logo?
No, the New Balance 850 is specifically known for its minimalist design, which removes the traditional large side branding.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
This model is sized in UK units. We recommend checking your current New Balance footwear or measuring your foot length against a standard UK size conversion chart.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these sneakers in a machine as the heat and agitation can damage the leather, embroidery, and structural adhesives.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is a combination of high-quality leather and breathable mesh, designed for both durability and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather sections
Use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers to help maintain their shape and minimize natural creasing.
Stubborn stains on mesh
Apply a gentle foam cleaner specifically formulated for sneaker mesh and blot with a microfiber cloth instead of scrubbing aggressively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 850 sneakers remain in top condition, follow these care and setup recommendations:
- Sizing: These shoes are sized in UK measurements; verify your specific size (e.g., 7.5 UK) against local charts to ensure a proper fit.
- Cleaning: For the mesh areas, use a soft brush and a mild detergent solution to gently remove debris. For leather sections, use a designated leather cleaner and a soft cloth to avoid scratching.
- Moisture Prevention: Avoid submerging the shoes in water. If they become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp leather and weaken adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the golden embroidery and blue colourway from fading.
