FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is recommended to hand clean these trainers with a soft cloth and mild soap to maintain the integrity of the materials.
Is the sizing true to standard UK kids sizes?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing, but it is always recommended to compare the specific size against the New Balance size chart before purchase.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The New Balance 1906 features a standard fit. If your child has particularly wide feet, it may be beneficial to try them on with sports socks to check for pressure points.
What activity are these shoes best for?
These are lifestyle trainers designed for daily wear, walking, and casual play rather than competitive sports.
Do these come with adjustable straps or laces?
This model features traditional lacing, which allows for a more customized and secure fit compared to velcro straps.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on the shoes
Loosen the laces fully from the eyelets downwards before slipping the foot in to prevent strain on the heel counter.
Slight discomfort during initial break-in
Wear the trainers for short periods at home to allow the internal cushioning to mold to the foot shape.
Surface scuff marks on the black upper
Use a specialized black shoe polish or a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to buff out light scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the New Balance 1906 trainers, keep them away from excessive mud and water. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can degrade the foam and synthetic materials. Ensure a proper fit by measuring the child's foot with a standard Brannock device or sizing chart, allowing for a small amount of space for growth at the toe.
