FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906 Trainers offer excellent cushioning and support suitable for everyday wear and light activities. While they share sole unit technology with some running models, they are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual comfort rather than high-performance running.

How do I clean the 'Silver Metallic' knit upper?

To clean the 'Silver Metallic' knit upper, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth mixed with a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners. Allow them to air dry completely.

What kind of support do these trainers offer?

These trainers feature a TPU heel cage for rearfoot stability, an N-lock lacing system for a secure midfoot fit, and a durable rubber outsole for reliable ground contact. The comprehensive cushioning system (ACTEVA LITE, ABZORB SBS, N-ergy) provides overall foot support and shock absorption.

Are these trainers true to size?

New Balance generally runs true to size. However, foot shape can vary. It's recommended to consult New Balance's official size guide if you are unsure, and remember that these are specified as UK size 5 for adults.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The upper is constructed from Leather & Synthetic materials, which offer some resistance to light moisture. However, these trainers are not designed to be fully waterproof. For heavy rain or very wet conditions, we recommend choosing footwear specifically designed for waterproofing.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper consists of a 'Silver Metallic' knit with synthetic overlays and a breathable mesh textile. The overall composition is stated as Leather & Synthetic Upper.

Are the insoles removable?

Info needed: Whether the insoles are designed to be removable for custom orthotics or cleaning is not explicitly stated in the product description.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the N-lock lacing system. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned for a snug yet comfortable fit. If a persistent issue, double-check your foot measurement against New Balance's size guide.

Foot discomfort after extended wear.

While the trainers feature extensive cushioning, prolonged standing or walking can still cause fatigue. Ensure you have the correct size. Consider taking short breaks or changing positions if possible. If discomfort persists, consult a podiatrist.

Squeaking sound from the sole.

Squeaking is often caused by moisture between the insole and outsole or external debris. Remove the insole (if possible) and clean both the insole and the shoe's interior. Ensure they are completely dry before reinserting. Also, clean the outsole thoroughly. If the issue persists with new shoes, it might be part of the break-in process.

Upper material appears discolored or stained.

Promptly spot clean any stains using a mild soap and damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for synthetic and knit materials may be used, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing on the 'Silver Metallic' knit to prevent damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your New Balance 1906 Trainers involves proper initial setup, understanding their compatibility, and routine care.

Setup

  1. Lacing: Utilize the N-lock lacing system to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Adjust the laces evenly across your foot, ensuring they are snug but not overly tight. A well-tied lace enhances the support provided by the shoe's structure.
  2. First Wear: Wear your trainers indoors for a short period to break them in and ensure optimal comfort. This allows the cushioning to mold slightly to your foot.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for adults, specifically a UK size 5 for females. Their versatile design makes them compatible with a wide range of casual and activewear apparel. The advanced cushioning system is suitable for most foot types seeking general comfort and support.

Care Instructions

To maintain the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 1906 Trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For minor dirt and scuffs, use a soft brush or damp cloth with a mild soap. Gently scrub the affected area on the Leather & Synthetic Upper and Synthetic Sole.
  2. Deep Cleaning (Upper): Mix a small amount of mild detergent with cold water. Use a soft cloth or brush to clean the 'Silver Metallic' knit upper. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the fabric.
  3. Sole Cleaning: Use a brush (like an old toothbrush) to clean dirt and debris from the rubber outsole.
  4. Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or using heat sources (like radiators or hairdryers) as this can damage materials.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You can use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
