FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906 Trainers are designed primarily for comfort and casual everyday wear, as well as light activities like walking. While they offer cushioning and support, they are not specifically engineered as high-performance running shoes for intense or long-distance running. For dedicated running, we recommend New Balance's specialized running shoe lines.

How do I choose the correct size?

The New Balance 1906 Trainers typically run true to size. We recommend measuring your foot length and referring to the New Balance official sizing chart for the most accurate fit. If you are between sizes, consider ordering the larger size for comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash your New Balance 1906 Trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoes. Please follow the hand-cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care and Maintenance' section to prolong their lifespan.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The New Balance 1906 features a breathable, lightweight upper designed for comfort. While specific material composition can vary slightly, it typically includes synthetic textiles and mesh for optimal breathability and flexibility. Info needed: Precise material composition (e.g., polyester, mesh blend).

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

The 1906 Trainers feature a comfortable, cushioned midsole designed to provide general support and shock absorption for everyday wear. For individuals requiring specific or high levels of arch support due to foot conditions, custom orthotics or specialized insoles might be beneficial in conjunction with these trainers.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Check the lacing. Adjust the tension of the laces to find the optimal fit. Consider trying different lacing techniques for wider or narrower feet. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.

Squeaking sound when walking.

This can sometimes happen if an insole isn't perfectly seated or if moisture is trapped. Remove the insole, clean underneath, and let both dry completely before reinserting. If the squeak persists, apply a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Trainers develop an odour.

Ensure trainers are fully air-dried after each use. Remove insoles occasionally to air them out separately. Use shoe deodorizers or place a sachet of baking soda inside when not in use. Avoid wearing the same pair every day to allow them to dry out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Your New Balance 1906 Trainers arrive ready to wear. Simply:

  1. Unbox: Remove the trainers from their packaging.
  2. Lace Up: Adjust the laces to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure they are not too tight to restrict circulation, nor too loose to cause slippage.
  3. Try On: Walk around to ensure the fit is correct and comfortable before extended wear.

Compatibility

These trainers are highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair well with:

  • Jeans, chinos, and shorts.
  • Athleisure wear like track pants and hoodies.
  • Casual dresses or skirts for a sporty touch.

They are designed for general everyday use and are not specific to any particular sport or activity requiring specialized footwear.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure your New Balance 1906 Trainers remain in top condition:

  • Cleaning:
  1. Surface Dirt: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the upper and outsole.
  2. Stains: Mix a small amount of mild soap (e.g., dish soap or laundry detergent) with warm water.
  3. Wipe Clean: Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with the soapy water and gently wipe soiled areas. Avoid saturating the material.
  4. Rinse: Use a separate cloth dampened with clean water to wipe away any soap residue.
  5. Air Dry: Allow trainers to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials. Do not machine wash or machine dry.
  • Odour Control: If odours develop, consider using shoe deodorizers or placing baking soda in the shoes overnight (remove before wearing).
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures. Avoid crushing them to maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or harsh cleaning agents, as these can damage the materials and colours.
