FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance 1906 trainers are designed for general wear and light athletic activities. While they offer good cushioning with the ABZORB midsole, they are not specifically engineered for the high-impact demands of marathon running. For marathon training, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping. The lace-up system allows for adjustment to achieve a snug, comfortable fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The rubber outsole provides decent grip, but they are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water is not recommended. Ensure they are dried thoroughly if they get wet.

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB midsole?

The ABZORB midsole provides a combination of cushioning and compression resistance. This means it effectively absorbs shock from impacts and helps to maintain its cushioning properties over time, reducing foot fatigue during wear.

Are there specific color options for men and women?

The New Balance 1906 trainers are listed as a unisex model. While certain color combinations like Grey/Pink may appear more gender-specific to some, the design and sizing are intended for all genders.

How should I clean the trainers if they get muddy?

Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth to wipe away mud. For tougher stains, a small amount of mild soap with water can be used on a cloth, followed by a clean damp cloth. Always allow them to air dry away from heat.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot, and re-tie them. Ensure you are using the correct UK size. Consider using the shoe with thinner socks if needed.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For enhanced grip on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider specialized shoe traction sprays, though the zigzag pattern is designed for good grip.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Allow the shoes a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for support without being too tight. If discomfort persists, consider your activity type and consult a footwear specialist.

Visible wear on the outsole

Inspect the outsole regularly. If significant wear is observed, it may be time to consider replacing the trainers to maintain optimal grip and support.

Compatibility:

The unisex design makes them compatible with a wide range of foot shapes. They are suitable for adult users. While designed for general wear and light athletic activities, their specific performance characteristics are optimized for activities that benefit from cushioning and grip.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and dust.
  • For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution and a cloth, then wipe clean with fresh water.
  • Allow shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Do not machine wash or soak the shoes.
  • Regularly check the outsole for wear and tear.
