Full details

The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of performance heritage and modern comfort. Their key benefit lies in the advanced sole unit providing excellent cushioning and shock absorption for daily wear and light training.

FAQs

Are the New Balance 1906R trainers good for running?

The 1906R features advanced cushioning suitable for daily wear and light activities. While comfortable for walking and casual use, they are not specifically designed as high-performance running shoes for intense training.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided UK sizing guide. Ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The open-holed mesh upper provides excellent breathability but offers limited protection against rain. For wet conditions, consider waterproof footwear or alternative shoes.

What is the main advantage of the sole technology?

The sole unit combines ACTEVA LITE cushioning for flexibility, N-ergy for shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS pods in the heel for targeted support, providing a comfortable and stable experience.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could damage the mesh.

What kind of activities are these trainers best suited for?

They are ideal for daily wear, walking, standing for long periods, and light gym activities. Their design prioritizes comfort and style for casual use.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between sole layers. Try wearing them for a bit longer to see if it resolves, or ensure they are completely dry after cleaning.

Inconsistent fit

Ensure laces are tied correctly and not too tight or too loose. Different lacing techniques can adjust the fit across the midfoot and ankle.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning materials may compact with extensive use. Ensure proper care and avoid excessive overloading beyond the intended use to prolong cushioning effectiveness.
