FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 1906X features high-performance cushioning inspired by running shoes, they are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and everyday comfort rather than serious athletic training.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed with open-holed mesh for breathability, complemented by curvilinear synthetic overlays for support and style.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and compare it with your standard UK shoe size. The description provides specific UK sizing information.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The mesh upper offers breathability but is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Avoid heavy rain or puddles.

What is the main benefit of the sole unit?

The sole unit combines ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS to provide a superior blend of flexible cushioning, shock absorption, and heel support for enhanced comfort.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This guide specifically covers the Castlerock/Faded Black colorway. Other color options may be available from retailers.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try wearing thinner socks or allowing for a brief break-in period as the materials may adapt to your foot shape.

Squeaking noise

A squeak can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking for any loose components.

Discoloration on mesh

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently with mild soap and water as per care instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and shock absorption for all-day comfort.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool.
  • Durable construction for long-lasting wear.
  • Stylish, retro-inspired design.
  • Versatile unisex sizing.

Cons

  • May be too performance-oriented for casual fashion wear.
  • The specific aesthetic might not appeal to everyone.
  • Nylon material can be less water-resistant than other options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance 1906X trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed as unisex footwear suitable for adult wearers. They are compatible with a wide range of casual outfits and are well-suited for everyday activities.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Wipe down the sole unit with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, a slightly stiffer brush can be used carefully.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
