FAQs
What is the main benefit of the ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning?
ABZORB provides shock absorption, while N-ergy enhances cushioning and responsiveness. Together, they offer superior comfort and support for daily wear.
Are these shoes suitable for serious running?
The 1906R is designed with running shoe aesthetics and comfort in mind, suitable for casual running and everyday wear. For high-performance or competitive running, specialized athletic shoes are recommended.
How should I clean the metallic silver overlays?
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which could scratch the metallic finish.
What is the primary inspiration for the 1906R model?
The design is inspired by early 2000s running shoe fashion and technology.
Can these trainers be worn by women?
While listed for men, the style and comfort are unisex. Sizing may need to be adjusted accordingly for women.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is primarily constructed from dark grey mesh with metallic silver overlays.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing guide and, if possible, try the shoes on in person to ensure a comfortable fit, as sizing can vary between models.
Troubleshooting
Uncomfortable fit
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Consider trying on with different sock thicknesses. The shoe may require a brief break-in period.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try inserting a powder (like talcum powder) into the shoe or checking the insole for movement.
Material wear
Regular cleaning and proper storage can extend the life of the materials. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme conditions.
