The New Balance 950 in the UA950CA1 “Black” colourway is built for baseball umpires and officials who need a shoe that blends formal, uniform‑ready styling with the comfort of a running trainer. The upper uses predominantly black leather with perforations and subtle synthetic panels, creating a durable, easy‑to‑clean surface that maintains a professional appearance. Inside, a cushioned midsole with ABZORB technology in the heel helps absorb impact during long games, while a supportive insole and padded collar improve underfoot comfort and fit. A non‑marking rubber outsole offers traction on turf and hard ground, making the 950 suitable both for on‑field use and for casual wear where an all‑black, sport‑inspired sneaker is required.
