FAQs

What age group are these trainers designed for?

These trainers are specifically designed for Older Kids.

Are these shoes suitable for both boys and girls?

Yes, the New Balance 1906 GS is a unisex product, suitable for any child.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB cushioning is a New Balance proprietary foam material in the midsole that provides exceptional shock absorption, protecting the foot from impact during active use.

Can these shoes be used for sports?

Yes, with their supportive TPU heel cage, ABZORB cushioning, and grippy Nergy outsole, they are well-suited for various energetic activities and casual sports.

How do I keep the shoes clean?

For general cleaning, gently brush off loose dirt. Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth for stains, then air dry them away from direct heat.

Do these shoes offer good ventilation?

Yes, the mesh upper is designed to be lightweight and breathable, promoting airflow to keep feet fresh and comfortable.

Is the sole durable?

The Nergy outsole is specifically designed to be both durable and grippy, providing long-lasting traction and wear resistance for active children.

Troubleshooting

My child's laces keep coming undone.

Ensure the laces are tied with a double knot. You might also consider replacing standard laces with slightly longer ones if the existing ones are too short for a secure knot.

The shoes feel tight or loose after a short period.

Check the lacing technique; sometimes adjusting the tension across different eyelets can improve fit. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, verify the shoe size against your child's current foot measurements, as children's feet grow quickly.

The shoes have a noticeable odor after active play.

Remove the insoles (if possible) and air them out separately. You can also sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the shoes and insoles overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out in the morning. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced Comfort and Shock Absorption: ABZORB and ABZORB SBS cushioning provides excellent protection for active feet.
  • Stylish Retro Design: Introduces a cool 'noughties' aesthetic that appeals to children.
  • Breathable for Active Play: Lightweight mesh upper keeps feet fresh during day-long adventures.
  • Stable and Supportive: TPU heel cage adds essential support for energetic activities.
  • Durable Grip: Nergy outsole offers good traction for varied surfaces.

Cons

  • Kids-Specific Sizing: Available only in children's sizes, limiting broader appeal.
  • Lace-Up Only: Requires tying laces, which might be a learning curve for younger children.
  • Specific Style Preference: The retro '00s aesthetic may not suit all personal tastes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Getting started with the New Balance 1906 GS is straightforward. The shoes feature a lace closure system. Simply unlace them sufficiently to comfortably slide your child's foot in, then tighten the laces to achieve a snug, secure fit. Ensure the laces are tied properly to prevent tripping hazards during play.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed specifically for Older Kids, fitting a range of children's foot sizes. They are a unisex product, suitable for both boys and girls. The design is versatile for various casual and athletic activities.

Care

To ensure the longevity and performance of your New Balance 1906 GS trainers, follow these general care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: For general dirt, gently brush off loose debris. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
  3. Odour Control: If shoes develop an odor, remove insoles (if removable) and air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
  4. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  5. Inspection: Regularly check laces for wear and tear, and the sole for any embedded debris that could affect grip. > Info needed: [Specific washing machine suitability if applicable]
