FAQs
What is N-ergy outsole technology?
N-ergy is a New Balance cushioning technology found in the outsole. It uses a specially formulated elastomer to provide advanced shock absorption and superior energy return, giving a comfortable and responsive feel underfoot.
What does SBS heel cushioning do?
SBS (Strobel Board Support) heel cushioning is a type of foam cushioning strategically placed in the heel area. It enhances comfort and provides additional impact absorption and stability, particularly when your heel strikes the ground.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the New Balance 1906 Trainers offer excellent comfort and cushioning, they are primarily designed for lifestyle wear, casual activities, and daily walking. For dedicated running, New Balance offers other models specifically engineered for high-performance running.
How do I clean the mesh upper part of the trainers?
To clean the mesh, gently brush off any loose dirt. Then, using a soft cloth or sponge dampened with a mild soap and water solution, gently wipe or dab the mesh. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue, then air dry.
Are the New Balance 1906 trainers true to size?
New Balance trainers generally fit true to size for most individuals. For this specific UK 7 size, it should align with standard UK men's footwear sizing. If you are unsure, it's always best to try them on or consult a New Balance sizing chart.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The New Balance 1906 Trainers have mesh and man-made uppers which offer some protection but are not waterproof. They are suitable for light dampness, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water is not recommended as it can saturate the materials and may cause discomfort or damage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 7. Lacing adjustments can significantly impact fit; try loosening or tightening laces, especially in the forefoot or midfoot. Allow a short break-in period for the materials to conform to your foot.
Squeaking sound from sole.
A squeak can sometimes occur with new shoes or if debris is trapped. Check if the insole is properly seated or if any small stones are lodged in the outsole grooves. Squeaking often resolves with regular wear as the sole breaks in.
Silver areas appear dull or dirty.
This is common with lighter colours. Gently spot clean the silver surfaces using a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. For persistent marks, a dedicated shoe cleaner designed for synthetic materials may be used. Air dry thoroughly.
Feet feel hot or sweaty.
While the mesh uppers are designed for breathability, prolonged wear or specific conditions can lead to this. Ensure you're wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking). Remove insoles to air out after wear, and consider rotating between shoes if worn daily.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:
- General Cleaning: For daily dirt, gently brush off loose debris with a soft-bristled brush.
- Spot Cleaning: For stains, mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with water. Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with the solution and gently wipe the affected areas. Avoid saturating the shoe.
- Mesh Areas: For mesh, use a soft brush or cloth with the mild soap solution to gently scrub. Rinse the cloth and wipe away any soap residue.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a brush or cloth to clean the N-ergy outsoles and midsoles. Stubborn dirt can be removed with a bit more pressure and the soap solution.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources (like radiators), which can damage materials. Do not put them in a dryer.
- Deodorizing: To prevent odors, remove insoles occasionally to air out and consider using shoe deodorizers or baking soda.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
