Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 1906A trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of performance heritage and modern comfort, perfect for everyday wear or light athletic activities. Their key benefit lies in the advanced sole unit providing excellent cushioning and shock absorption. A potential caveat is that the mesh upper, while breathable, may require careful cleaning to maintain its appearance. This model features a hi-tech sole unit with ACTEVA LITE cushioning, N-ergy shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS heel pods, complemented by an upper with open-holed mesh and curvilinear synthetic overlays for a distinctive, high-performance look.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the 1906A's sole unit?
The sole unit features a combination of ACTEVA LITE cushioning for flexibility, N-ergy for shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS pods in the heel for enhanced impact protection, providing superior comfort and support.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The 1906A is designed as a trainer, ideal for walking, daily wear, and light athletic activities. For intense running or specialized training, dedicated running shoes might be more appropriate.
How should I clean the mesh material?
Gently clean the mesh with a soft brush or cloth using a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and do not machine wash. Always air dry away from direct heat.
Can these trainers be worn by women?
Yes, the 1906A is designed as a unisex model, suitable for adults of all genders.
What kind of material is the upper made of?
The upper is primarily constructed with open-holed mesh for breathability, complemented by curvilinear synthetic overlays for structure and style.
Do these trainers offer good arch support?
The trainers provide support through their cushioning and sole design. For individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using aftermarket insoles that can be inserted into the shoes.
What is the difference between the 1906A and other New Balance models like the 2002R?
While sharing similar technological foundations in their sole units (ACTEVA LITE, N-ergy, ABZORB SBS), each model has distinct design aesthetics and upper constructions that cater to slightly different style preferences and performance nuances.
Troubleshooting
Tingling or numbness in feet
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try loosening the laces or consider an insole with better arch support if needed.
Mesh upper appears dirty or stained
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water mixture to gently clean the affected area. Blot with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid machine washing.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the outsoles are clean and free of debris. Some surfaces are naturally more slippery; assess the conditions of use.
Shoelaces become worn or frayed
Replace the shoelaces with a new pair of similar length and material. You can find replacements at most shoe stores or online retailers.
