Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 1906D Protection Pack Black Leather is designed for the adult male seeking a stylish, retro-inspired sneaker with a focus on tactile aesthetics. Its key benefit lies in the captivating textural appearance created by a blend of distressed leather and suede overlays on a mesh base, offering a unique visual and tactile experience. A potential caveat is the distressed nature of the overlays, which might not appeal to those preferring a pristine look.

Troubleshooting

Sizing seems off.

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider the width and your preferred fit. If possible, try them on before purchasing.

Distressed look is more pronounced than expected.

The distressed appearance is an intentional design feature. If the distressing is uneven or concerning, contact customer support for assistance or explore exchange options if within the return period.

Creasing on leather overlays.

Creasing is natural with leather use. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Discoloration of mesh or leather.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean with appropriate, gentle cleaning agents as per care instructions.
