New Balance 1906R Protection Pack - Black Leather - UK 10.5

The 'Protection Pack' designation refers to a specific design aesthetic featuring distressed leather and suede overlays, giving the sneaker a unique, intentionally worn-in look.

While the 1906R offers cushioning and support, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker. For dedicated running activities, New Balance recommends their specialized running shoe models.

Use a soft brush or cloth to gently wipe away surface dust. For tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for distressed leather, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

The NLOCK system is an integrated lacing structure designed to provide a secure and customizable fit, helping to lock the foot in place.

The upper is constructed from a combination of leather, including distressed overlays, and mesh for a balance of durability and breathability.

The New Balance 1906D Protection Pack Black Leather was released on July 22nd, 2023.

While the shoe has some durability, it is not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials, especially the suede.

Ensure the NLOCK system is properly engaged and adjusted. Re-lace if necessary, ensuring the lacing pattern is even.

Apply a suitable leather conditioner to moisturize the material. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specific suede cleaning guide or product.

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check lacing for proper tension.
