FAQs
Is the New Balance 1906D true to size?
Yes, the 1906D generally fits true to size, but the N-Lock lacing provides adjustability for those with wider or narrower midfoot profiles.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, washing machine cycles can permanently damage the suede and the structural adhesives; stick to manual spot cleaning.
What is the purpose of the N-ergy unit?
The N-ergy unit is an outsole technology that provides maximum shock absorption and a responsive, energetic feel underfoot.
Are these suitable for running?
While inspired by performance technology, the 1906D is primarily positioned as a lifestyle and walking shoe rather than a dedicated high-mileage running trainer.
How do I remove salt stains from the suede?
Dab the area with a cloth dampened with a very mild mixture of water and white vinegar, then allow it to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose or inconsistent tension
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through the integrated side N logos to engage the N-Lock mechanism.
Suede looks dull or matted
Gently use a soft suede brush in a back-and-forth motion to restore the nap and lift the fibers.
Heel slippage during walking
Utilize the top eyelet (runner's loop) to create a more secure heel lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 1906D trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in period: The shoe may feel firm out of the box; wear them for shorter intervals to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture.
- Stain prevention: Apply a water-resistant suede-safe spray before initial wear to create a protective barrier against moisture and environmental debris.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white suede from fading or discoloring.
- Lacing: Adjust the `N-Lock` system carefully; do not overtighten, as it may stress the eyelet attachments over time.
