FAQs
What kind of cushioning technology does the New Balance 1906R use?
The 1906R features a combination of flexible ACTEVA LITE cushioning, shock absorbing N-ergy, and segmented ABZORB SBS pods at the heel for superior comfort and impact protection.
Is the New Balance 1906R suitable for running?
While it draws on high-performance heritage and offers advanced cushioning, the 1906R is generally optimized for everyday wear and casual activities, rather than dedicated high-intensity running or specialized athletic training.
How should I clean my 1906R shoes?
Gently brush off loose dirt. For stains, use a mild soap mixed with cool water on a soft cloth or brush, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Always air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash.
Are these shoes true to size?
New Balance generally aims for a true-to-size fit, but we recommend consulting the official New Balance sizing chart for precise measurements and fit guidance.
What materials are used in the upper of the 1906R?
The upper design features open-holed mesh for breathability and a series of curvilinear synthetic overlays for distinctive style and structural support.
Can I wear the 1906R in all types of weather?
The open-holed mesh upper provides breathability but is not waterproof. For wet conditions, consider applying a suitable water-repellent spray, though extreme weather use is not its primary design.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Check your size against the New Balance sizing guide. Try adjusting the lacing to relieve pressure points, or consider if a different size/width might be necessary if discomfort persists.
Unpleasant odor develops after wear.
Air out your shoes thoroughly after each use. Remove insoles occasionally for better ventilation. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
Squeaking sound from the sole.
This can sometimes be caused by insoles rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insoles. If the issue persists, check for any trapped debris between the sole and upper or if the outsole is separating.
Upper mesh or synthetic material appears dirty or stained.
Follow the 'Care & Maintenance' instructions for spot cleaning. Address stains promptly with mild soap and water, avoiding harsh chemicals or vigorous scrubbing that could damage the material.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care will help maintain the shoe's appearance and extend its lifespan, especially given its mixed-material construction (mesh and synthetic overlays).
- Initial Cleaning: Gently brush off any loose dirt or dust from the mesh and synthetic surfaces using a soft-bristled brush.
- Spot Cleaning: For tougher marks, use a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) mixed with cool water. Apply with a soft cloth or sponge, gently dabbing or wiping the affected area.
- Mesh Areas: For the open-holed mesh, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can help clean intricate areas. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Rinsing: Wipe away any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes completely at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage materials. Do not put them in a dryer.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and discoloration.
