FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed primarily for everyday wear and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the high demands of marathon running.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and white leather paneling.
How do I ensure the best fit for UK size 9?
Ensure your heel is comfortably secured in the back and there is adequate space in the toe box without your toes touching the front. Try them on with the type of socks you would typically wear.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand washing and air drying are the preferred methods.
What does 'N-ERGY' refer to in the description?
N-ERGY is New Balance's proprietary cushioning technology, designed to provide superior shock absorption and responsiveness in the midsole.
How should I store my 1906R trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture.
Are there other colorways available for the 1906R series?
Yes, the 1906R series is available in various colorways. This guide specifically covers the 'White Green' variant in UK size 9.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try loosening the laces slightly, or if the noise persists, it might be related to the sole rubbing against the insole. A quick fix can sometimes be dusting talcum powder under the insole.
Discomfort after initial wear
New Balance 1906R trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit without being too tight.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
While the gum rubber outsole offers good traction, performance on very wet or slick surfaces can be diminished. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For extremely slippery conditions, exercise caution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct fit by trying them on before use.
Compatibility: The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed for adult male feet in UK size 9. They are compatible with most casual wear, including jeans, shorts, and athleisure outfits.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and leather components, use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean away dirt and stains. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the cream midsole and gum outsole. For stubborn dirt on the outsole, a slightly stiffer brush can be used carefully.
- Laces: The green woven laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
- Drying: Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help preserve their shape.
