FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The 1906R trainers are designed for everyday comfort and style with advanced cushioning. For dedicated marathon running, specialized running shoes with specific performance features are recommended.

What is the primary benefit of the N-ergy technology?

N-ergy technology is designed to provide effective shock absorption, helping to reduce impact on your feet and joints during wear.

How do the ABZORB SBS pods enhance comfort?

The segmented ABZORB SBS pods are strategically placed in the heel to offer enhanced, targeted shock absorption where it's needed most, contributing to a more comfortable stride.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The mesh upper offers some breathability but is not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Ensure they are properly dried afterward.

What is the main difference between the 1906R and other New Balance models like the 2002R?

While often sharing similar sole technologies like ACTEVA LITE and N-ergy, the 1906R features a distinct upper design with open-holed mesh and curvilinear overlays, offering a unique aesthetic and performance profile compared to other series.

How should I clean the synthetic overlays?

Wipe the synthetic overlays gently with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution with the damp cloth and follow up with a clean, damp cloth to remove residue.

Troubleshooting

Foot fatigue despite cushioning

Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for a secure fit. If fatigue persists, consider trying a different sock thickness or consulting a footwear specialist.

Mesh appears dirty

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Sole squeaks

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. It may resolve with further wear. If persistent, check for any trapped debris between the sole segments.
