FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The New Balance 1906 trainers are designed with a standard fit. While they offer good comfort, individuals with particularly wide feet may want to consult New Balance's sizing guide or try them on in person if possible, as wider fit options are not explicitly mentioned for this model.

How do I clean the synthetic upper?

Gently wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Can I wear these for marathon running?

While the ABZORB and N-Ergy technologies offer excellent cushioning and energy return for running, they are generally considered best suited for training runs, shorter distances, or everyday wear rather than elite marathon competition where specialized long-distance racing shoes might be preferred.

What is the main benefit of the Stability Web technology?

The Stability Web is designed to provide enhanced midfoot support, improving overall stability and helping to prevent excessive pronation during quick movements, turns, or changes in pace.

How do the N-durance and ABZORB technologies differ?

N-durance is a durable rubber compound used in the outsole to withstand wear in high-impact areas, ensuring longevity. ABZORB is a specialized cushioning technology in the midsole designed to absorb shock and reduce impact forces on the foot and leg.

Is the ORTHOLITE sockliner removable?

Yes, the ORTHOLITE sockliner is typically removable, allowing for easy cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics if needed.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Allow for a break-in period, as synthetic materials can soften over time. Consider wearing thinner socks if the fit is borderline.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The ORTHOLITE sockliner and midsole technologies are designed for durability. If cushioning significantly diminishes, it may indicate extensive wear. Clean the shoes and check for any debris that might be affecting performance.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole. Try removing the insole, cleaning it and the inside of the shoe, and then reinserting it. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and shock absorption for comfort during long wear.
  • Enhanced energy return helps improve running efficiency.
  • Durable sole construction for longevity, even with frequent use.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool and comfortable.
  • Versatile design suitable for both athletic activities and casual styling.

Cons

  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • The retro aesthetic might not appeal to all fashion preferences.
  • Primarily designed for neutral pronation; may not be ideal for severe overpronators without additional support.
  • Synthetic materials, while durable, might be less preferred by those seeking natural fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal fit and performance.

Compatibility: Designed for general athletic use and casual wear. They are compatible with various athletic activities, including running, gym workouts, and walking. They are also suitable for everyday styling with casual attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Socks: Wearing appropriate athletic socks is recommended for comfort and to help manage moisture within the shoe.
