FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The 1906X trainers are designed for everyday comfort and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning and support, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running activities.

What is the primary benefit of the sole technology?

The sole technology, combining ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, and ABZORB SBS pods, provides a superior blend of flexible cushioning, shock absorption, and stability for enhanced comfort during daily wear.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart. These trainers are available in UK adult sizes. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the provided guide for the best fit.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some resistance, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prolong their lifespan and prevent material damage.

What is the difference between the 1906 and 1906X series?

The 1906X is a special edition that embodies the design conventions of its era, often featuring unique material combinations or colorways, while maintaining the core high-performance tradition of the 1906 series.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Gently spot clean the mesh using a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid excessive scrubbing to prevent damage to the fine mesh material.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wear them with thicker socks for a short period or use a shoe stretcher. The materials may offer some give over time.

Squeaking sound from sole.

This can sometimes occur with new cushioning systems. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure no debris is trapped within the sole patterns.

Discoloration on synthetic overlays.

Wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could strip the color.

Mesh material snagged or torn.

Minor snags can sometimes be carefully trimmed. For significant tears, professional repair may be an option, or consider replacing the shoe.
