FAQs
Are the New Balance 1906R trainers suitable for running?
While they offer excellent cushioning and support for everyday wear and light training, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running. For dedicated running, consider specialized running shoes.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is primarily constructed from open-holed mesh with synthetic overlays for breathability and style.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart available on their official website or consult with a shoe fitting professional for accurate measurement. Key sizes provided include UK 6, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 10, 10.5.
What is the benefit of the Stability Web technology?
The Stability Web provides enhanced arch support, contributing to a more stable and secure stride by preventing excessive foot motion.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand-wash using mild soap and water as per the care instructions.
What is the approximate weight of these trainers?
The approximate weight is 345 grams (12.2 oz), offering a balance between cushioning and a manageable feel.
Are these trainers unisex?
The product information indicates both Unisex and Male gender designations for different variants, suggesting availability for a broad range of wearers.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to new materials rubbing together. Try wearing them for a few more sessions to allow them to break in. If the noise persists, check for any loose parts or debris trapped in the sole.
Arch support feels too high or uncomfortable
The Stability Web provides arch support. If it feels unnatural, ensure you are wearing the correct size and consider using aftermarket insoles that offer a different profile or cushioning.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
While the N-ergy outsole offers good grip, wet surfaces can always reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is clean. For significantly wet conditions, exercise caution.
Discomfort after initial wear
New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct fit; incorrect sizing is a common cause of discomfort.
