FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The New Balance 1906D 'Protection Pack' is not explicitly waterproof. While the leather offers some resistance, they are not designed for heavy exposure to water. It is recommended to treat them with a water-repellent spray for added protection.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. These are unisex shoes, so consider that sizing might differ slightly from gender-specific models. The UK 6.5 size is specified for this particular product listing.

Can I wear these for running or intense sports?

While these shoes offer good cushioning and support for walking, they are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle purposes, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

What does 'Protection Pack' refer to?

'Protection Pack' refers to a specific design iteration of the 1906D silhouette that features layered, deconstructed-style overlays and a more robust aesthetic compared to the standard model.

How should I store these shoes when not in use?

Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or damp conditions.

Is the black color likely to fade?

High-quality leather and dyes are used, but like all colored materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause some fading over time. Proper storage will help maintain the color.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly stiff on first wear.

Leather and suede materials often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot's shape.

Suede material appears matted or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Always brush in one direction after cleaning.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

While designed for non-slip qualities, very smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a risk. Ensure the outsole is free from debris and consider if the surface is particularly hazardous.

Care:
