FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoe technology, the 1906R is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not recommended for high-performance running.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always allow the shoes to air dry.
What is the 'Sea Salt True Red' colorway?
This colorway features a primary 'Sea Salt' (off-white/light beige) base with vibrant 'True Red' accents on the branding, heel counter, and other design elements.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The leather offers some protection, but these are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protectant spray can help repel light moisture.
How does the sizing run for the 1906R?
The 1906R generally runs true to size for most individuals. It is recommended to consult New Balance's official sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible.
What is the warranty period for these shoes?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please refer to the point of purchase or the official New Balance website for specific warranty details.
Are these shoes unisex?
This specific product listing is for men's sizing. New Balance may offer similar styles in unisex or women's specific sizing.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is normal for leather. Ensure proper fit; over-tightening laces can worsen creasing. Use shoe trees for storage to help maintain shape.
Red color bleeding onto white parts
Avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture, especially in the initial wears. If bleeding occurs, gently clean affected white areas with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Squeaking sound from the sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between sole layers or on smooth surfaces. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the shoes are completely dry.
Discomfort during wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check that laces are not tied too tightly.
