FAQs

What material is the New Balance 1906R 'Lunar New Year' made from?

This trainer features a primary construction of leather, offering a premium feel and durability.

How should I clean my leather trainers?

Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. Use a specialized leather cleaner for tougher marks, and always follow the product's instructions. Allow to air dry naturally.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The 1906R series is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While comfortable for walking, they are not optimized for high-impact running or athletic training.

What does the 'Lunar New Year' designation signify?

This designation typically refers to a special colorway or design elements inspired by the Lunar New Year celebration, often featuring unique colors or motifs.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the brand's sizing chart. The UK 7.5 size is specific to this listing.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Using a leather protectant spray can offer some water resistance.

What other colorways or sizes are available for the 1906R series?

The 1906R series is available in various colorways and sizes. Please refer to the product catalog or retailer for other options.

Troubleshooting

Uneven fit or rubbing

Ensure laces are tied correctly and not too tight. Wear thicker socks initially during the break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider an insole for added cushioning.

Leather creasing excessively

This is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize deep creases, ensure the shoe is not over-flexed when not in use. Store with shoe trees if possible.

Color transfer from leather to socks

This can occur with new leather items. It is recommended to wear dark socks with the trainers until the color stabilizes, or use a leather recoloring/sealing product as directed.

Difficulty cleaning scuffs

For light scuffs, try a magic eraser or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional shoe repair service.
