FAQs
What makes the 'Protection Pack' different?
The 'Protection Pack' is characterized by its deconstructed aesthetic, featuring layered panels with rough-cut edges, giving it a unique, rugged appearance distinct from traditional sneaker designs.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While offering comfort, the 1906D 'Protection Pack' is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe. For high-performance running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.
How should I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and revive the nap. For stains, a suede eraser or a specific suede cleaner can be used. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The leather offers some protection, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended without proper waterproofing treatment. Ensure they are thoroughly dried if they get wet.
What is the best way to store these trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape, and keeping them in a shoe bag or the original box can protect them from dust.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Generally, New Balance footwear runs true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It is advisable to check reviews or try them on if possible. The UK 7.5 is specified for this particular guide entry.
What other colors are available in the 1906D series?
The 1906D series, including the 'Protection Pack,' is available in various colorways. The 'Castlerock' is a popular grey option, but other variations may exist depending on the specific release and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with thin socks initially, and the leather may stretch slightly with wear. Consider using a shoe tree to help maintain shape and potentially widen the fit.
Leather appears scuffed or dirty
Clean with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a specialized leather conditioner or balm can help restore the finish. Address stains promptly before they set.
Soles feel stiff
New shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. The cushioning and support should improve with regular use.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
