FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the New Balance 1906U offers excellent cushioning and support for everyday comfort, it is not specifically designed as a high-performance running shoe. It's best suited for casual wear, walking, and light activities.
How do I determine my size?
This model is listed in UK sizing. We recommend checking a New Balance size chart if you are unsure of your UK size or comparing it to other New Balance models you own. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The leather and ripstop materials offer some resistance, but the shoes are not fully waterproof. It is advisable to avoid heavy rain or puddles. Applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather and fabric can add an extra layer of protection.
What is N-ergy cushioning?
N-ergy cushioning is a New Balance technology designed to provide superior shock absorption and responsive comfort. It helps to return energy, offering a springy feel with each step.
How do I clean the Butter Yellow color to prevent discoloration?
For the Butter Yellow color, it's crucial to clean regularly and promptly address any dirt or stains. Use mild cleaning solutions specifically for leather and fabric, and avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which could damage the color or material. Always air dry away from direct sunlight.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or replace it for cleaning. This also helps with airing out the shoe.
Troubleshooting
My shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Leather shoes often need a brief break-in period; wear them for short durations initially to allow the material to adapt to your foot. If discomfort persists, check if the lacing is too tight.
The leather looks dull or stained.
Clean the leather parts with a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft cloth. For stains, act quickly. After cleaning, you can apply a leather conditioner to restore shine and suppleness. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
My shoes are squeaking.
Squeaking can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside of the shoe with baby powder or cornstarch, and then reinserting the insole. If the squeak is from the sole, it might be due to moisture; ensure shoes are fully dry before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Fit: When first trying on your New Balance 1906U, ensure there is about a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The UK 8.5 size is designed for adult male feet. Allow for a short break-in period, typically a few wears, for the leather and ripstop materials to conform to your foot shape.
Compatibility: These shoes are versatile and can complement a range of casual and athleisure outfits due to their contemporary design and monotone Butter Yellow colorway.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: For the leather sections, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner. Gently wipe away dirt. For the ripstop fabric, a soft brush and mild soap solution can be used. Always air dry away from direct heat.
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and fabric to help protect against elements.
- Maintenance: Regularly remove laces and clean underneath the tongue. Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
