New Balance 1906R Protection Pack - Black Leather - UK 6.5

The 'Protection Pack' typically refers to a series of New Balance models featuring exaggerated, layered overlays that give a 'protected' or robust appearance, often with a distressed finish.

While they feature NERGY cushioning, the 1906R Protection Pack is primarily designed as a lifestyle or casual wear sneaker. For dedicated running, New Balance offers specialized running shoe models.

Use a specialized suede brush for suede areas and a damp cloth with mild soap for leather. Avoid harsh chemicals. It's recommended to test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

The N LOCK system is integrated into the design, working with the N logo to provide a secure and adaptable fit across the midfoot.

While the materials offer some protection, these are not waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their materials and appearance.

The upper is a combination of leather and mesh, with distinctive distressed leather and suede overlays.

The '1906R' designation refers to the model's year of original inspiration or design, with 'R' often indicating a modern reinterpretation or runner version.

Loosen the laces and wear them with thicker socks for a short period, or consider using shoe trees to gently stretch the material over time. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

For minor scuffs on leather, a leather conditioner might help blend them. For distressed elements, this is part of the design; avoid harsh cleaning that could cause unintentional damage.

Ensure your gait is natural. If uneven wear is significant, consult a shoe repair specialist. Proper care and rotation with other footwear can prolong sole life.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean with appropriate cleaners for each material type (leather cleaner for leather, suede cleaner for suede).
