FAQs
Are these New Balance 1906 trainers suitable for running or sports?
The New Balance 1906 Youth Trainers are designed for general everyday wear and light physical activities, offering comfort and support. For specialized sports or high-intensity running, we recommend looking into New Balance's performance-specific athletic footwear lines.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
New Balance youth sizing typically corresponds to standard UK children's shoe sizes. We recommend measuring your child's foot length and referring to the New Balance sizing chart for the most accurate fit. Always try them on to ensure comfort.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and adhesives. We advise hand washing with cold water and a mild detergent, followed by air drying, to maintain the trainers' integrity.
What does 'breathable mesh upper' mean?
'Breathable mesh upper' refers to the top part of the shoe being made from a lightweight, woven material with small openings. This design allows air to circulate freely around the foot, helping to keep it cool and reduce moisture buildup.
Are these trainers available in other colors or materials?
Yes, while this guide focuses on the crisp white version, the New Balance 1906 series is available in other color families like black and pink, and some variants may feature different material combinations such as nylon. Please check available product listings for other options.
How can I make my white trainers stay clean longer?
To keep white trainers looking new, consider applying a shoe protector spray before first wear. Regularly wipe down any dirt with a damp cloth after use. For tougher marks, use a specialized shoe cleaner or a gentle mixture of baking soda and water.
Troubleshooting
Trainers appear dirty quickly
Regularly spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap. For persistent dirt, a hand wash with gentle detergent and air drying is recommended.
Uncomfortable fit or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern for a more customized fit. Wear appropriate socks to prevent rubbing.
Foot odor develops after wear
Remove insoles after wear to allow shoes to air out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use. Ensure trainers are fully dry before storage.
Sole appears worn out prematurely
While New Balance trainers are durable, excessive use on rough surfaces can accelerate wear. Rotate with other footwear to extend lifespan. This is general wear and tear.
Laces constantly come undone
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. If issues persist, consider replacing laces with a different material or length.

- Deep Cleaning: For overall cleaning, remove laces and insoles. Hand wash the trainers using a gentle detergent and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
