FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is recommended to hand-clean these trainers with a damp cloth rather than machine washing to protect the materials.
Do the laces need to be tied?
No, these trainers feature a convenient elastic lace system that does not require tying.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The padded collar and soft woven upper offer a flexible fit, though individual foot shape can vary.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a smooth, woven material designed for both durability and comfort.
Is the sole non-marking?
The rubber outsole is designed for grip and is generally suitable for indoor surfaces.
How do I determine the right size?
Measure your child's foot from heel to toe and consult a standard size guide for children's UK sizes.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty sliding the foot into the shoe
Ensure the elastic laces are fully stretched and the padded tongue is pulled forward before inserting the foot.
Shoes feel too loose
Check if the child has outgrown the current size, as the elastic system cannot be tightened manually.
Build-up of debris in the outsole
Use a soft brush to gently remove dirt or stones caught in the rubber grooves to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1906 trainers last, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the woven upper with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the rubber sole or damage the adhesive.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Fit: Since these use elastic laces, ensure the shoe size is appropriate for the infant's foot length to prevent slippage.
