FAQs
Is the New Balance 1906R suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the 1906R is designed with cushioning and energy return that can support marathon distances for many runners. However, individual needs vary, and it's always best to test them on your longer training runs.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
It is not recommended to machine wash the New Balance 1906R. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the safest method to preserve the materials and structure of the shoe.
What is the main difference between ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning?
ABZORB technology primarily focuses on shock absorption, reducing impact. N-ergy enhances this by providing responsive cushioning and energy return, helping to propel you forward.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the New Balance 1906R features a mesh and leather upper which is breathable but not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.
What surfaces is the gum-rubber outsole best for?
The gum-rubber outsole is designed for excellent traction and durability on paved surfaces like roads and sidewalks, as well as standard running tracks.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with ones that offer better grip.
Slight discomfort on first wear
This is common with new running shoes. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure the lacing is not too tight or too loose.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The gum-rubber outsole provides good traction, but always exercise caution on wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
White mesh appears dirty quickly
Regularly wipe down the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. Consider using a protective spray designed for athletic footwear.
