The New Balance 650 debuted in the late '80s, accompanying its low-top counterpart, the now-famous NB 550. While both models feature perforated leather panels for breathability, the 650R boasts higher collars with soft padding for extra support and comfort. In terms of colour arrangement, these NB 650Rs are given a crisp white palette with minimal contrasting grey accents. Completing the design is standard New Balance branding details like the "N" logos across the sides and the EVA midsole unit beneath the feet.
