FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The New Balance 1906 series features a standard fit with padding that accommodates most foot shapes, though the elastic laces provide a flexible top closure.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as water and heat can damage the cushioning and synthetic structural layers.
Does the rubber sole provide enough grip for outdoors?
Yes, the rubber outsole is specifically designed to provide traction on standard outdoor surfaces like pavement and grass.
How do I ensure the correct size for my infant?
Measure the length of your child's foot and compare it against standard sizing charts, ensuring there is a small amount of wiggle room for growth.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 1906 trainers are designed as a unisex model.
Troubleshooting
Elastic laces feel too loose over time
Ensure the collar padding is sitting correctly against the ankle to prevent the foot from sliding within the shoe.
Surface dirt on the woven upper
Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth to gently lift surface debris, then let the material air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for infants and are available in a variety of UK sizes. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the synthetic adhesives. Instead, spot clean the woven upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the shape of the padding and the integrity of the foam cushioning.
