FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for serious running?

While offering excellent cushioning and support, the New Balance 1906R trainers are primarily designed for everyday wear, light jogging, and casual use. For high-intensity or long-distance running, New Balance offers specialized performance running shoes.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as these can damage the materials.

Do they run true to size?

New Balance 1906R models generally run true to size for most individuals. However, foot shapes vary, so we always recommend trying them on to ensure the best and most comfortable fit for your specific foot.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance foam material renowned for its superior shock absorption and cushioning properties. It helps to disperse impact forces, providing a comfortable and responsive feel underfoot.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The airy mesh upper of the 1906R trainers provides breathability but is not waterproof. While they can handle light dampness, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or very wet conditions is not recommended to preserve the shoe's integrity and your comfort.

What is Stability Web technology?

Stability Web is a New Balance feature integrated into the midfoot area of the shoe. It is designed to provide enhanced arch support and midfoot stability, helping to guide the foot and offer a more secure and balanced feel during movement.

Are these trainers good for standing all day?

Yes, thanks to the ABZORB cushioning and Stability Web technology, the New Balance 1906R trainers are an excellent choice for individuals who spend long hours standing, offering sustained comfort and support throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

Inspect the outsole for small trapped debris. Sometimes, movement between the insole and the shoe's footbed can cause squeaking; try removing and reinserting the insoles or sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder underneath them to reduce friction.

Foot discomfort or rubbing after long wear

Ensure your laces are not tied too tightly or too loosely, as improper lacing can lead to pressure points or excessive movement. Double-check your sizing; consider if an aftermarket insole might provide personalized support tailored to your foot arch and gait.

Outsole losing grip or traction

Thoroughly clean the N-ergy rubber outsole with a brush and soapy water to remove any accumulated dirt, mud, or grime. Build-up on the tread pattern can significantly reduce traction. Allow to air dry completely before wearing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Comfort: The ABZORB cushioning provides a plush, responsive feel ideal for extended wear.
  • Enhanced Stability: Stability Web technology offers reliable arch and midfoot support, reducing fatigue.
  • Durable Construction: A combination of mesh and synthetic overlays ensures longevity and resilience.
  • Versatile Style: The sleek black and phantom design makes these trainers suitable for a wide range of casual outfits.
  • Reliable Grip: The N-ergy rubber outsole provides confident traction on various surfaces.

Cons

  • Material Specifics: The polyester material, while durable, may require careful cleaning to maintain its appearance.
  • Not for Heavy-Duty Sports: Optimized for daily wear and light activity, they may not offer the specialized performance required for intense athletic training.
  • Initial Fit Adjustment: Like many new shoes, it might take a few wears to find the ideal lacing tension for personalized comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure you get the most out of your New Balance 1906R trainers, proper setup, understanding compatibility, and routine care are essential.

Setup

  1. Lacing: Begin by ensuring the tonal laces are threaded evenly through all eyelets. This helps distribute pressure uniformly across your foot.
  2. Fit Adjustment: Tighten the laces snugly, but not so tightly that they cause discomfort or restrict circulation. Your heel should feel secure, and your toes should have enough room to wiggle freely. Adjust the tension until you achieve a comfortable, locked-in feel.

Compatibility

  • Apparel: These trainers seamlessly complement a variety of casual and athletic wear, including joggers, jeans, shorts, and tracksuits. Their versatile black colourway makes them easy to integrate into most wardrobes.
  • Activity: Ideal for daily walking, light recreational running, casual outings, and jobs that require prolonged standing. They are designed for general comfort and support rather than specialized athletic performance for specific sports.

Care

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the airy mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a small amount of mild soap mixed with water. Avoid abrasive brushes that could damage the material.
  2. Cleaning the Outsole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and soapy water to scrub the N-ergy rubber outsole, removing dirt, grime, and small stones from the treads.
  3. Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources like radiators. Direct heat can cause materials to warp, crack, or fade. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place to help maintain their shape and material integrity. You may use shoe trees or stuff them with paper to help absorb moisture and retain shape.
