FAQs
What is the 'Protection Pack' aesthetic?
The 'Protection Pack' aesthetic refers to a design concept that gives sneakers a deconstructed, layered look, often featuring intentionally frayed or worn edges on overlays, blending a retro feel with modern detailing.
Are these shoes good for running?
The New Balance 1906D Protection Pack is primarily a lifestyle shoe designed for comfort and style during casual wear. While it offers good cushioning and support, it is not optimized for high-impact running or athletic performance.
How do I clean the leather parts?
For leather overlays, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For more stubborn marks, a small amount of dedicated leather cleaner can be applied with a soft cloth, followed by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What does ABZORB technology do?
ABZORB is a New Balance technology that provides excellent shock absorption and cushioning, helping to reduce impact and provide comfort during wear.
What is the Stability Web feature?
The Stability Web is a component, often made of plastic, integrated into the outsole. It provides torsional rigidity and arch support, helping to control pronation and enhance the shoe's stability.
Do these shoes come in other colours?
The New Balance 1906D is released in various colourways and collections. The 'Protection Pack' series, including this silver metallic version, often features distinct colour palettes.
What is the typical lifespan of these trainers?
With proper care and regular wear, these trainers can last for a significant period. However, the lifespan depends on usage frequency, intensity, and adherence to care instructions. The deconstructed elements may show wear over time, which is part of their intended aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Refer to New Balance's official sizing chart and consider trying them on in-store if possible. Check user reviews for insights on whether to size up or down.
Leather overlay creases easily
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather, especially with a deconstructed design. Gentle wear and proper storage will help manage this. Avoid excessive bending.
Discoloration on mesh or leather
Follow the care instructions to clean gently. For significant discoloration, consult a shoe care specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.
Compatibility: While designed as a lifestyle shoe, they are compatible with casual and athleisure wear. They are suitable for adult foot sizes.
Care:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and leather. For stubborn marks on leather, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: A soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water can be used to clean the midsole and outsole. Ensure to remove any debris from the tread.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag, to maintain their shape and prevent material degradation.
