FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the delicate mesh and the structural integrity of the shock-absorbing pods. Use hand cleaning methods only.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The 1906N series is designed with a standard fit, but the flexibility of the mesh upper provides some natural give for various foot shapes.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the stock insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if preferred.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper is constructed primarily from a combination of high-quality, durable polyester and synthetic curved overlays.
Are these trainers good for running?
While they feature high-performance cushioning, they are primarily categorized as trainers suited for walking, lifestyle, and light exercise rather than dedicated long-distance running.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt trapped in the mesh weave
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris after the dirt has dried completely.
Midsole feels less bouncy over time
Allow the foam to recover by rotating your footwear with another pair, giving the cushioning 24 hours to decompress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1906N trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These trainers utilize standard UK adult sizing; ensure a thumb's width of space at the front for proper comfort.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the polyester mesh and overlays with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging in water or using harsh industrial detergents.
- Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning components.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the mesh fibers.
