FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they utilize high-performance components, the 1906R is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for daily wear and walking.

How does the sizing run?

The 1906R generally follows standard adult sizing, though it is recommended to reference the UK sizing guide for your specific foot measurements.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.

Are the materials waterproof?

No, the open-mesh upper is designed for breathability and will allow water to pass through, so it is best to avoid heavy rain.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest to ensure a comfortable fit that accounts for natural foot swelling.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt inside the mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the open-mesh fabric without pressing it deeper into the fibers.

Creasing or loss of shape

Always use a shoe horn when putting them on and insert a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the internal structure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 1906R trainers remain in optimal condition, treat them with a water and stain repellent spray suitable for mesh and synthetic materials before initial wear. To clean, remove loose dirt with a soft brush and use a mild detergent mixed with lukewarm water for spot cleaning. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the structural integrity of the overlays and the adhesive. Ensure they are air-dried away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
