FAQs
What activities are these shoes best for?
These shoes are best for energetic activities, daylong adventures, and general casual wear, providing comfort and support for active kids.
How do the shoes provide cushioning?
They feature ABZORB cushioning in the midsole and ABZORB SBS pods under the heel, which work together to offer superior shock absorption and a comfortable stepping experience.
Are these shoes breathable?
Yes, the lightweight and breathable mesh upper is designed to keep feet feeling fresh, even after extended wear.
Does the outsole provide good grip?
Yes, the Nergy outsole is engineered to be both durable and grippy, offering reliable traction on various surfaces.
What materials are used in the upper part of the shoe?
The upper features a mesh material for breathability, complemented by retro-style overlays for design and structure.
How do I ensure the shoes fit securely?
The shoes utilize a traditional lace closure. Adjust the laces to achieve a snug and secure fit, and consider double-knotting for active play.
Do these shoes offer good support for active kids?
Yes, the TPU heel cage provides additional support and stability, which is especially beneficial during energetic movements and activities.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the lace closure. Ensure the laces are evenly tightened from the bottom to the top for a snug, comfortable fit. Recheck the size if discomfort persists.
Squeaking sound when walking
Check for any trapped debris between the outsole and midsole. For new shoes, this can sometimes occur as materials settle; a light dusting of talcum powder inside the shoe under the insole can sometimes help.
Laces frequently come untied
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double-knot, especially before engaging in energetic activities. You can also explore different lacing techniques for better security.
Foot discomfort during long wear
While equipped with ABZORB cushioning, ensure the shoes are properly broken in. Also, consider the type of socks worn, as they can impact comfort and fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your New Balance 1906 sneakers feature a traditional lace closure. To ensure the best fit:
- Loosen the laces fully before putting the shoes on.
- Slide your foot into the shoe, ensuring your heel is comfortably seated against the back.
- Begin tightening the laces from the toes upwards, pulling each cross-section snugly but not too tightly.
- Tie a secure knot or double-knot, especially for energetic activities, to prevent laces from coming undone.

Care
Proper care will help extend the life and appearance of your New Balance 1906 sneakers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean the mesh upper and overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers.
- Cleaning the Outsole: A stiff brush can be used to remove dirt and debris from the Nergy outsole.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
