FAQs

Are the New Balance 1906R suitable for running?

The 1906R trainers are designed with advanced cushioning for comfort and support, making them excellent for everyday wear and light activities. While they offer good shock absorption, they are not specifically designed as high-performance running shoes for intense training.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the New Balance size chart available on the product page or the brand's official website. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided measurements for UK, EU, and US sizing.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and construction of the trainers. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the primary benefit of the sole unit technology?

The sole unit combines ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS to provide a highly cushioned, shock-absorbing, and supportive experience, minimizing impact during wear.

Are there other color options available for the 1906R series?

While this guide focuses on the Black colorway, the 1906R series is often available in various color combinations. Please check the product listings for other available options.

What does 'heritage design' refer to in the description?

It refers to the aesthetic and design elements that are inspired by New Balance's classic shoe models from previous eras, blending vintage style with modern technology.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking if the laces are too tight.

Discomfort after first wear

The 1906R may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the fit is correct; consider trying different sock thicknesses.

Reduced cushioning effectiveness

Over time, cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are not overused for high-impact activities beyond their design intent. Regular cleaning can also help maintain material integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, with a specific UK size 9 fit. They are suitable for a wide range of casual and light athletic activities. While primarily designed for male sizing, some colorways and sizes may be suitable for unisex wear. Please check specific size charts for accurate fitting.

Care: To maintain the condition of your 1906R trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently remove dirt and debris from the mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher grime on the rubber outsole, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing and air drying.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your trainers naturally. 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.
