Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 1906 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of heritage style and modern performance. Their key benefit lies in the advanced sole technology offering superior cushioning and shock absorption. A potential caveat is that the open-holed mesh upper, while breathable, may not be ideal for very wet conditions. These unisex trainers feature a distinctive design with curvilinear overlays and a high-tech sole unit that combines ACTEVA LITE cushioning, N-ergy shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS pods.

FAQs
Are these trainers good for running marathons?
While the 1906 offers excellent cushioning for comfort, they are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and general training rather than high-performance, long-distance running like marathons.
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 end of the shoe. The heel should not slip excessively when you walk.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash the New Balance 1906 trainers, as this can damage the materials and construction. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method.
What is the main difference between ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS?
ACTEVA LITE provides lightweight cushioning. N-ergy offers shock absorption. ABZORB SBS pods are specifically placed in the heel for enhanced impact protection.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The 1906 is offered in unisex sizing, and specific width options may be available depending on the retailer and region. Check product details for width availability.
How durable is the nylon upper?
Nylon is a robust material known for its resistance to abrasion and tearing, contributing to the overall durability of the trainers.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they become more flexible.
Discomfort on one side of the foot
Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Check the lacing to make sure it is even and not too tight on one side. Consider using insoles if additional arch support is needed.
Mesh appears dirty after light use
Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush and mild soap solution. Ensure the shoes are thoroughly dried before storing to prevent water spots.
