FAQs

Are the New Balance 1906X suitable for running?

The 1906X trainers are designed primarily for comfort and style, with features supporting light activities and all-day wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specifically engineered as high-performance running shoes.

How do I clean the GORE-TEX material?

The GORE-TEX fabric is best cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure any soap residue is rinsed off with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the main advantage of the Stability Web technology?

Stability Web technology provides enhanced arch support, contributing to better overall stability and reducing foot fatigue during extended periods of wear.

Can I wear these trainers in very cold weather?

While the GORE-TEX material offers waterproofing and breathability, these trainers are not insulated for extreme cold. They are suitable for cool, damp weather but may not provide sufficient warmth in freezing temperatures without additional thermal socks.

How durable is the N-ergy outsole?

The N-ergy rubber outsole is designed for durability and shock absorption, providing reliable traction and support for daily use. Like all rubber outsoles, wear will occur over time with consistent use.

What does the 'X' in 1906X signify?

The 'X' typically denotes a specific iteration or special edition within a product line, often indicating enhanced features or a contemporary update on a classic design, such as the advanced sole unit and refined upper details on this model.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the cord laces and readjust for a more comfortable fit. Ensure you are using the correct size.

Water seeping through

Check the GORE-TEX seams and material integrity. Ensure laces are tied securely. Minor wear might affect waterproofing over time.

Reduced cushioning effect

The ACTEVA LITE midsole and ABZORB SBS pods offer long-lasting cushioning, but cushioning can decrease with extensive wear. Ensure the shoes are not overloaded beyond their intended use.

Difficulty cleaning mesh areas

Use a soft brush with mild soap and water. For persistent dirt, allow the soapy water to sit briefly before gentle brushing. Always rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently clean the mesh and synthetic overlays using a soft brush or cloth dampened with mild soap and cool water. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the sole unit with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt on the N-ergy outsole, a slightly stiffer brush can be used carefully.

  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
