FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The 1906X features advanced cushioning and support technologies, making them excellent for daily wear and light activities. However, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers and may not offer the specialized features required for serious or high-mileage running.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, which is usually available on the product page or the brand's official website. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. Given these are unisex, ensure you check the corresponding UK or international size.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technologies. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and always air dry.
What does '1906X' signify?
The '1906' often references the year New Balance was founded. The 'X' typically denotes a special or elevated version, suggesting a model with enhanced design features or technology inspired by that heritage.
Is the 'Grey/Green' colour accurate to the images?
Colour perception can vary slightly based on screen settings and lighting. The 'Grey/Green' colourway combines a primary grey base with green accents, reflecting the design as intended by New Balance.
What is the main difference between the 1906X and other New Balance models like the 2002R?
While both models draw from New Balance's performance heritage, the 1906X specifically incorporates technologies like ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS in its midsole for a distinct cushioning and support profile, coupled with its unique upper design featuring open mesh and curvilinear overlays.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even tension. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider the sizing or the specific fit for your foot type.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The cushioning technologies are designed for durability, but prolonged heavy use can reduce their effectiveness. Ensure proper care and consider replacing the shoes if they show significant wear.
Traction is poor on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good grip, but like most trainers, performance on very wet or slippery surfaces may be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Care: To maintain the condition of your New Balance 1906X trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust from the mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
