FAQs

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed from resilient mesh for breathability, complemented by synthetic 'Mushroom' overlays for structure and aesthetic, and leather heel counters for added detail and support.

Are these shoes suitable for serious running?

While designed with premium comfort and cushioning technologies like ABZORB and N-ergy, the 1906R is best suited for an active lifestyle, light running, walking, and everyday wear, rather than competitive or long-distance athletic performance.

How do I ensure the best fit for my feet?

The N-lock lacing system provides a secure and adaptive fit. We recommend choosing your standard UK shoe size. Ensure there is adequate toe room (about a thumb's width) and a snug, comfortable feel around the midfoot.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technologies. Please refer to the care instructions for proper cleaning methods.

What makes the New Balance 1906R unique?

Its uniqueness stems from a compelling blend of modern technical features (like ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning) with 'ancient aesthetics' and distinctive synthetic overlays, offering both superior comfort and a stand-out style.

Are these shoes considered unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 1906R is designed as a unisex shoe, appealing to both men and women with its versatile styling and comfort features.

Troubleshooting

Laces feel too tight or loose

Re-adjust the N-lock lacing system. Ensure even tension across all eyelets. Experiment with different lacing patterns if discomfort persists, or loosen slightly for a more relaxed fit.

Shoes feel less responsive or comfortable than expected

Ensure you have chosen the correct size. An improper fit can negate the benefits of ABZORB and N-ergy technologies. Also, allow for a brief break-in period if new.

Shoes are getting dirty quickly or have tough stains

Regularly wipe down the polyester upper and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a soft brush with a small amount of mild shoe cleaner, then wipe clean. Avoid excessive scrubbing to protect the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Lacing: Slip on the shoes and utilize the N-lock lacing system to achieve your desired secure and comfortable fit. Adjust laces evenly to avoid pressure points and ensure optimal support.
  2. Break-In: While comfortable from the start, a short break-in period may further conform the shoe to your foot.

Care

  1. Cleaning: For the polyester upper and synthetic sole, gently wipe down with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Stains: For tougher dirt, use a soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush) with mild soap and water, then wipe clean.
  3. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain shape and material integrity. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
