FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906 trainers are a modern adaptation of a performance runner and offer excellent cushioning and shock absorption. While suitable for light activities and everyday wear, they are primarily designed for comfort and style rather than high-intensity athletic training.

How do I know if I'm choosing the right size for my child?

It's recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it with New Balance's sizing chart. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing.

What is the main benefit of the ABZORB technology?

ABZORB technology in these trainers provides superior shock absorption, reducing the impact on the feet and joints, thereby enhancing comfort during wear.

Can these trainers be worn by both boys and girls?

Yes, the New Balance 1906 trainers feature a unisex design, making them suitable for children of any gender.

How often should I clean these trainers?

Clean the trainers as needed, particularly after they become visibly dirty. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

What is the typical lifespan of these trainers for a child?

The lifespan depends on the child's activity level and how they care for the shoes. With proper care and regular cleaning, they are designed for durability for everyday use.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels too tight or loose

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Adjust lacing for a snug, comfortable fit. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size larger or smaller.

Cushioning feels stiff initially

The ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially until they conform to the foot.

Dirt or scuff marks on the surface

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the affected area. For stubborn marks, use a soft brush.

Shoes appear to be losing shape

Ensure proper storage when not in use. Avoid stuffing them into tight spaces or exposing them to excessive heat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with standard children's socks.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean the trainers using a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away dirt. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources such as radiators or tumble dryers, as this can deform the shoe.
  • Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Material Care: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, avoid abrasive cleaners. The metallic finishes should be treated gently to maintain their appearance.
