FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 1906R has running shoe heritage, the 'Black Phantom' variant is best suited for casual wear and light athletic activities. For serious running, dedicated performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. Dampen a cloth with mild soap and water, gently wipe the leather, and then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.

What sizes are available?

This guide specifically covers the UK size 6. The New Balance 1906R 'Black Phantom' is available in a range of men's UK sizes, from 5 to 12, including half sizes.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather construction offers some resistance, but it's not fully waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Applying a leather protector spray can enhance water resistance.

What is the return policy?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the retailer from whom you purchased the shoes for details on returns and exchanges.

How does the 'Black Phantom' color differ from other 1906R models?

The 'Black Phantom' designation typically refers to an all-black or predominantly black color scheme, offering a sleek and understated aesthetic compared to models with more varied color accents.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try inserting a powder or talc inside the shoe to absorb moisture, or ensure the laces are not too tight.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a new pair of the same length and material. For prolonged life, avoid over-tightening.

Leather scuff marks

For light scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, a professional shoe repair service might be necessary.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Consider using insoles or heel grips for targeted support.
