FAQs

The primary benefit is the combination of a stylish, retro-inspired design with advanced ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning technologies for excellent all-day comfort and support.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoes and featuring cushioning technologies, the 1906R 'Harbor Grey' is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-performance athletic activities.
How should I clean the 'Harbor Grey' trainers?
Gently clean the leather and mesh with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water. Allow to air dry naturally.
What materials are used in the 'Harbor Grey' 1906R?
The trainers typically feature a combination of leather and mesh for the upper, with metallic silver overlays, and a rubber outsole.
Is this shoe available in other sizes and colors?
Yes, the New Balance 1906R series is available in various sizes and colorways. This specific product is the 'Harbor Grey' variant in UK size 5.
How does the ABZORB cushioning work?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance technology that absorbs impact, helping to reduce the stress on your feet and joints during wear.
What is N-ergy technology?
N-ergy is another New Balance cushioning technology designed to provide responsive shock absorption and energy return, enhancing comfort and performance.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing to better suit your foot shape. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size, consulting the size guide beforehand.
Cushioning feels less responsive over time.
This is normal wear. While the ABZORB and N-ergy technologies are durable, their responsiveness may decrease after extensive use. Ensure the shoes are cleaned regularly to maintain optimal performance.
Marks or stains on the upper.
Refer to the care instructions. Use appropriate cleaning agents for leather and mesh. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
