FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 1906 trainers are a modern adaptation of a performance runner, offering excellent cushioning. However, they are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For intense or competitive running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
These trainers use UK sizing. It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the New Balance size chart, paying attention to the 'Adult Footwear' or 'Kids Footwear' guides as appropriate. Due to their performance shoe design, some users find sizing up half a size provides extra comfort.
What is the primary material composition?
The materials consist of 30% rubber and 70% synthetic/textile, with a mesh upper for breathability.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a damp cloth and a soft brush is the preferred method to preserve the materials and structure.
What is the benefit of the TPU Heel Cage?
The TPU Heel Cage provides enhanced stability and a secure fit by offering support to the heel area during movement.
Are these trainers available in other colors?
Yes, the New Balance 1906 series is available in various colorways. Please check product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Torn mesh or loose threads
Gently trim loose threads with scissors. For tears, consult a shoe repair specialist if not covered by warranty.
Reduced cushioning over time
While cushioning is designed for durability, some gradual reduction is normal with heavy use. Ensure you are not exceeding recommended use cases (e.g., intense athletic training).
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur due to friction between components or moisture. Ensure the shoes are dry. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder at the insole might help.
