FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by performance runners, the 1906R is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear; it is suitable for light activities but not heavy-duty endurance training.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Use a soft brush to remove dust. For stains, gently blot the area with a mixture of water and mild detergent, then air dry away from heat sources.
What is the N-Lock system?
The N-Lock is a structural feature that connects the lacing system to the side branding, providing a more secure and customized fit through the midfoot.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing conventions, though the TPU cage provides a more structured, snug fit compared to standard mesh trainers.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather overlays and weaken the structural adhesives. Manual cleaning is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose while walking
Adjust the N-Lock system tension and use a double-knot to ensure the lockdown remains consistent.
Scuff marks on leather overlays
Use a specialized leather cleaning sponge or a soft eraser to gently buff out minor scuffs without damaging the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 1906R trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the N-Lock laces are adjusted to your specific foot volume; pulling too tight may restrict circulation.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh. Wipe leather areas with a slightly damp microfiber cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or material discoloration.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. If you wear thick performance socks, you may consider a half-size adjustment depending on your foot width.
