FAQs

Are the New Balance 1906 Utility trainers good for running?

While inspired by running shoes and featuring performance cushioning, the 1906 Utility is primarily designed for style and comfort during everyday activities. For intense running or athletic training, dedicated performance running shoes are recommended.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of open-holed mesh for breathability and synthetic overlays for structure and style.

How do I clean these trainers?

Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For dirtier areas, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush. Always air dry and avoid machine washing.

What is the main cushioning technology used?

The trainers feature ACTEVA LITE cushioning in the forefoot for lightweight flexibility and N-ergy shock absorption in the outsole, along with ABZORB SBS pods in the heel.

What does 'Utility' signify in the product name?

The 'Utility' designation suggests a focus on practical, everyday wearability and enhanced comfort features within a classic design framework.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The approximate weight of the New Balance 1906 Utility trainer is 352.2 grams (12.4 oz).

Does this model offer specific arch support?

Yes, these trainers include Stability Web arch support integrated into the outsole for enhanced midfoot stability.

Troubleshooting

Uncomfortable fit

Ensure laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider if the standard (D) width is suitable for your foot.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a short period to break them in, or check if there's any debris trapped in the sole.

Reduced cushioning feel

Over time, cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are used within their intended capacity and not for strenuous athletic activities that would accelerate wear.

Discoloration or scuffing

Address minor scuffs with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, consult specific cleaning guides for mesh and synthetic materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort. The lace-up closure allows for a customized fit.

Compatibility: The 1906 Utility trainers are designed for adult wear and are suitable for general daily activities. They pair well with casual attire such as jeans, shorts, and athleisure wear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Wipe away dirt and debris with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

  4. Air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources.
  5. Consider using a protective spray for suede or mesh components to guard against moisture and stains.
