FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed for retro style and everyday comfort, not for high-performance marathon running. For competitive running, dedicated running shoes with specific performance features are recommended.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure your heel is snug, there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe, and the width feels comfortable without being too tight or loose. Refer to New Balance's sizing chart for accurate measurements.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method.
What is the main benefit of the Stability Web technology?
The Stability Web technology provides targeted support to the arch of the foot, helping to enhance stability and reduce strain during wear.
What makes the cushioning unique?
These trainers feature ACTEVA LITE for lightweight cushioning and ABZORB SBS in the heel for exceptional shock absorption, combining comfort and responsiveness.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is breathable but not waterproof. They are designed for dry conditions and casual wear.
What are the primary materials used?
The trainers primarily use a textile and synthetic upper with a synthetic sole.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. If discomfort persists, consider alternative lacing techniques or insoles for a custom fit.
Traction seems reduced
Clean the rubber outsole with water and a soft brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be affecting grip.
Mesh upper appears dirty
Gently clean the mesh with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Blot with a clean, damp cloth to rinse and allow to air dry.
