FAQs
How do I clean my New Balance 1906W sneakers?
Gently brush off loose dirt, then use a mild soap mixed with lukewarm water and a soft cloth to clean the textile and synthetic upper. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and air dry completely, away from direct heat.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 1906W offers excellent cushioning and support making them suitable for light jogging and casual exercise. For dedicated or long-distance running, New Balance offers more specialized running shoes.
What kind of fit can I expect?
You can expect a comfortable, 'sock-like' fit due to the knitted upper construction. The shoes should feel snug and adaptive, offering good support without being overly restrictive.
What is ACTEVA LITE cushioning?
ACTEVA LITE is a premium, lightweight foam compound that provides optimal resistance to compression set and is 14% lighter than New Balance's standard ACTEVA foam, delivering a highly responsive and comfortable ride.
What does N-ergy shock absorption do?
N-ergy technology is integrated into the sole to provide superior shock absorption. It helps dissipate impact forces, reducing stress on your feet and joints during movement.
Are the 1906W sneakers water-resistant?
While the synthetic overlays offer some protection, the knitted textile upper is not designed to be fully waterproof or highly water-resistant. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain the shoe's condition and your comfort.
Is the sizing true to standard New Balance sizes?
Generally, New Balance shoes, including the 1906W, are true to size. However, individual foot shape can vary. If you are unsure, referring to a New Balance size guide or trying them on is recommended. The knitted upper provides some flexibility for different foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
My shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Allow for a brief break-in period, as the knitted upper is designed to adapt. Ensure laces are not overtightened; try re-lacing for a looser fit. Check if you are wearing appropriate thickness socks.
The sole feels less cushioned over time.
Cushioning materials can compact with extensive use. While the N-ergy and ACTEVA LITE are durable, consider replacing shoes after significant mileage or prolonged wear to maintain optimal cushioning and support.
My shoes are making a squeaking sound.
Squeaking often comes from friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and reinserting it. If the insole is worn, replacing it might help. Sometimes new shoes can squeak until broken in.

Care
Proper care helps maintain the appearance and longevity of your sneakers.
- Cleaning the Upper:
- Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush).
- Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with lukewarm water.
- Dip a soft cloth or brush into the soapy water and gently scrub dirty areas of the textile and synthetic upper.
- Wipe away soap residue with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid saturating the shoe.
- Cleaning the Sole:
- Use a brush or old toothbrush with soapy water to clean the synthetic sole, paying attention to grooves.
- Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
- Drying:
- Air Dry ONLY. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators, heaters, or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Stuff the shoes with paper towels or newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape while drying. Replace paper as needed.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and adhesives.
