FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the ABZORB cushioning offers excellent comfort, the New Balance 1906A trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and walking, not high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I determine my correct size?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent, but it's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to the official New Balance size chart. If unsure, consider trying them on or ordering your usual trainer size.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the leather, and compromise the shoe's structure. Always hand-clean them following the care instructions provided.
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that offers superior shock absorption and compression resistance, providing enhanced comfort and cushioning throughout the midsole and heel.
Are the materials waterproof?
The New Balance 1906A trainers are not designed to be waterproof. While the synthetic leather offers some water resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended.
What is a 'deconstructed aesthetic'?
A 'deconstructed aesthetic' refers to a design approach where elements of the shoe's construction are intentionally exposed or altered to create a unique, unfinished, or 'raw' look, offering a distinctive style.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. New Balance trainers often require a short 'break-in' period to conform to your foot. Try wearing them for shorter periods initially or check lacing for excessive tightness.
Stains on the mesh or synthetic leather
For fresh stains, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth and mild soap solution. For tougher stains, use a specialized shoe cleaner designed for synthetic materials, following product instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Unpleasant odor from the trainers
Remove insoles and allow them to air out thoroughly. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or place a sachet of baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb moisture and odors. Ensure trainers are fully dry after wear.
Leather appears dry or cracked
Clean the leather thoroughly as described in the care section. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the material. Regular conditioning can prevent future dryness and cracking.

Care Instructions
- Cleaning the Upper (Mesh and Synthetic Leather):
- Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., an old toothbrush).
- Mix a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) with cool water.
- Dampen a soft cloth or sponge with the soapy water and gently wipe down mesh and synthetic leather sections.
- Avoid saturating the materials. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove soap residue.
- Cleaning Leather Elements:
- For specific leather sections, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a very mild soap solution.
- Apply cleaner to a soft cloth, not directly to the shoe, then gently wipe the leather.
- Wipe away residue with a clean, damp cloth.
- Consider applying a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Odor Control: Remove insoles periodically to air them out. You can also use shoe deodorizers or baking soda sprinkled inside the shoes overnight (remove before wearing) to control odors.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
