FAQs
Are New Balance 1906R suede shoes waterproof?
No, as they are made of suede, these shoes are not inherently waterproof. We highly recommend applying a good quality suede protector spray to enhance their water resistance and protect against stains.
Can I use these sneakers for running or sports?
The New Balance 1906R series is designed for casual everyday wear and comfort, not for specialized athletic activities like running, intense training, or competitive sports. For those activities, New Balance offers specific performance shoe lines.
How do I clean the suede material?
For routine cleaning, gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following its instructions. Avoid soaking the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals.
What does 'wear-resistant' mean for these shoes?
Wear-resistant means that the materials and construction of the New Balance 1906R are engineered to withstand the stresses of regular, everyday use. This helps to minimize visible signs of wear and tear, contributing to the shoes' longevity.
What is the typical fit of the 1906R series?
The 1906R series generally offers a comfortable fit true to size for adults. However, individual foot shapes vary. We recommend trying them on or consulting New Balance's official size guide for the most accurate fit.
Is this product suitable for all genders?
While styles can be subjective, this specific variant of the New Balance 1906R is officially designated for males in its product attributes.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or matted.
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dust. Brush in one consistent direction.
Small dirt marks or scuffs on the suede.
Try using a suede eraser specifically designed for removing dry dirt and scuffs from suede. For more stubborn marks, apply a specialized suede cleaner as directed.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure your laces are not tied too tightly. Adjust them to allow for adequate foot movement. Consider the type and thickness of socks you are wearing.
Shoes developed an odour.
Allow the shoes to air out thoroughly after each wear. You can use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside and let it sit overnight, then shake it out.

Care Instructions
Proper care for your suede New Balance 1906R sneakers will help maintain their appearance and prolong their lifespan.
- Initial Protection (Recommended): Consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush off any dry dirt or dust from the surface. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner. Follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can leave marks.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Air dry them naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the suede.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent discolouration and material degradation. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your suede sneakers. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
