FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB midsole?

The ABZORB midsole provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning, reducing the impact on your feet and joints during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While they offer good cushioning for general use, the New Balance 1906 trainers are best suited for casual wear and light training, not specialized high-mileage running events.

How do I clean the mesh upper without damaging it?

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution and a soft brush for gentle cleaning. Avoid aggressive scrubbing and rinse thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth.

Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the typical lifespan of these trainers?

The lifespan depends on usage frequency and intensity. With proper care and moderate use, they can last from several months to over a year.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The trainers feature a cushioned midsole designed for comfort, which can offer moderate support. For specific arch support needs, consider using aftermarket insoles.

What is the difference between ABZORB and N-ergy technology?

ABZORB provides cushioning and shock absorption in the midsole. N-ergy is an additional shock absorption technology that complements ABZORB, offering enhanced protection against impact.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common for new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in and mold to your feet.

Reduced cushioning or support over time.

The midsole cushioning may degrade with extensive use. Consider replacing the trainers if they no longer provide adequate support and comfort after prolonged wear.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, traction on extremely wet or slippery surfaces can be compromised. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt from the midsole and outsole. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
