FAQs
Are these suitable for running?
The New Balance 1906R series is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer, offering a blend of retro style and modern comfort for everyday wear. While comfortable for walking, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I choose the right size?
These trainers are listed as UK size 13 for adults. New Balance generally runs true to size. We recommend trying them on to ensure a comfortable fit, allowing for adequate toe room and a secure heel. Refer to New Balance's official size charts if you have concerns about conversion from other sizing systems.
What is the colour of these trainers?
The colour family is 'Mindful Grey', providing a versatile and stylish neutral tone that easily matches various outfits. This subtle grey offers excellent flexibility for pairing with both vibrant and subdued wardrobes.
Are they machine washable?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers, potentially affecting their comfort and longevity. Please refer to the 'Care' section for proper cleaning instructions using a soft brush and mild shoe cleaner.
What is the 1906R series known for?
The 1906R series is known for expertly blending New Balance's rich heritage with modern design elements. It offers a retro-inspired aesthetic combined with contemporary comfort features, making it a popular choice for stylish everyday wear.
Can I wear these with formal attire?
While the 'Mindful Grey' colour is versatile, the New Balance 1906R trainers are designed with a casual and athletic-inspired aesthetic. They are best suited for smart-casual or everyday casual outfits rather than formal attire, complementing styles like jeans, chinos, or shorts.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you've selected the correct UK size 13. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different lacing technique for a more customized fit, or check if an exchange for a different size is possible.
Trainers appear dirty or stained.
Refer to the 'Care' section above. Use a soft brush for dry dirt and a dedicated shoe cleaner with a damp cloth for stains. Do not machine wash, as this can damage the materials and structure.
Discomfort during extended wear.
While designed for modern comfort, individual foot shapes and preferences vary. Ensure laces are not too tight. Consider aftermarket insoles for additional arch support or cushioning if needed, or allow for a break-in period if new.

Care
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 1906R trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush. For tougher spots, use a mild shoe cleaner designed for athletic footwear and a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or prolonged direct sunlight, as this can damage materials and cause fading.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent fading and material degradation.
- Protection: Consider using a shoe protector spray designed for trainers to help repel water and stains, especially if worn frequently outdoors.
