FAQs

What makes the cushioning in the 1906X unique?

The 1906X features a combination of ACTEVA LITE for lightweight responsiveness, N-ergy for shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS heel pods for enhanced stability and impact protection.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While the 1906X offers excellent cushioning for daily wear and light activity, they are not specifically designed for the demands of marathon running, which typically requires specialized performance footwear.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without slipping.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and upper materials. Hand wash with mild soap and water as per the care instructions.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from open mesh for breathability, complemented by synthetic overlays for structure and durability.

Are there other colorways or sizes available for the 1906X?

Yes, this model is available in various sizes and potentially other colorways. Please check the product listings for available options.

What does 'X' in 1906X signify?

The 'X' often denotes an updated or enhanced version of the original model, typically incorporating design or technological refinements.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with appropriate athletic socks. If discomfort persists, consider the possibility that the shoe's structure may not be ideal for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning over time

The cushioning materials are designed for long-term use, but performance may gradually decrease with extensive wear. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain their integrity.

Upper material appears dirty or stained

Follow the care instructions for cleaning the upper. For persistent stains on mesh, a slightly more concentrated mild soap solution might be needed, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult wear across genders. The UK size 10.5 is a standard fit, and compatibility with other sizes is available through variant siblings.

Care: To maintain the condition of your New Balance 1906X trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with cool water and mild soap to gently clean the mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Wipe the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Air dry the trainers naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
