FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906F trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes and may lack the specific support required for intense running.

How do I clean the snakeskin details without damaging them?

Use a dry, soft cloth to gently wipe the snakeskin accents. Avoid using water or cleaning solutions directly on these areas, as it could affect their texture or finish.

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB SBS and ACTEVA LITE midsole?

This midsole technology provides superior cushioning and shock absorption, helping to reduce impact on your feet and joints during wear.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

The trainers are not waterproof. While the outsole offers traction, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect the textile and synthetic upper. It's best to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What does '1906F' signify in the product name?

'1906F' refers to a specific iteration or collection within the New Balance 1906 series, often indicating design updates or material variations from the original model.

How do I use the N-lock webbing system for support?

The N-lock webbing system is integrated into the lacing structure. Proper lacing ensures this system engages to provide a secure and supportive midfoot fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable fit. Utilize the N-lock webbing system for a secure feel. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or width.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces.

Ensure the N-ergy outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While the outsole provides grip, caution is advised on very slick surfaces.

Discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure you have the correct size and that the laces are adjusted properly. Break-in periods may vary; allow a few wears for the shoes to mold to your feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Suitable for adult wear, primarily for casual use and light activities. They are designed for standard foot shapes but may accommodate wider feet due to the supportive structure. Not intended for high-impact sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For mesh areas, a gentle cleaning solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is trapped in the outsole grooves.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag to protect from dust and damage.
