FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for serious running or athletic training?

While inspired by New Balance's running heritage, the 1906R is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe. Its focus is on comfort and style for everyday wear rather than high-performance athletic training or competitive running.

How should I clean the suede and mesh materials?

For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. For mesh, a soft cloth with mild soap and water can be used. Always air dry away from direct heat. Consider a protective spray for both materials.

What is Stability Web technology?

Stability Web is an outsole technology that specifically cradles and supports the arch of your foot, providing enhanced midfoot stability and comfort during wear.

What does ACTEVA LITE mean for comfort?

ACTEVA LITE is a lightweight foam cushioning that delivers flexible and supportive comfort. It helps absorb impact and provides a responsive feel, making the shoes comfortable for extended periods.

Is the sizing consistent with other New Balance shoes?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent, but fit can vary slightly between models. We recommend checking the size chart and trying them on to ensure the best fit, especially if you are between sizes.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or preferred aftermarket insoles for personalized comfort and support, if needed.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially

Allow a break-in period of a few days of wear. The materials will soften and conform to your foot. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, gently apply a specialized suede eraser or cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid water saturation directly on suede.

Lack of arch support sensation

Ensure the shoe is laced properly for a snug fit, allowing the Stability Web technology to engage with your arch. If additional support is needed, consider an over-the-counter insole designed for arch support, ensuring it fits comfortably within the shoe.

Squeaking sound while walking

Check if the insoles are properly seated or if they are damp. Remove and reinsert them. Sometimes, a small amount of baby powder under the insole can resolve squeaking. If the issue persists, inspect the outsole for any loose components.

Getting started with your New Balance 1906R trainers is straightforward: simply put them on and adjust the laces for a secure, comfortable fit. These shoes are designed for adults, specifically men, and the particular variant is UK size 8.5. They are compatible with a wide range of casual and athleisure apparel. To ensure longevity and maintain their appearance, proper care is essential:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and debris. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid excessive moisture.
  2. Cleaning Mesh: For the mesh sections, a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water can be used. Gently scrub and wipe clean.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent material damage or warping.
  4. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a suede and fabric protector spray to help repel water and stains, particularly before initial wear.
