FAQs
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made primarily of suede, featuring distinctive jagged rough cuts.
Are these suitable for running?
While comfortable for walking, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not high-impact running.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, then air dry. Avoid soaking the suede.
What does 'Protection Pack' refer to?
The 'Protection Pack' series from New Balance is characterized by its deconstructed design elements, such as the jagged rough cuts on the materials, offering a unique aesthetic.
What is the purpose of the plastic heel cage?
The plastic heel cage is designed to provide additional support and stability to the heel of the foot.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather as they can be easily damaged and stained. Using a waterproofing spray can offer some protection.
What other color options are available?
This specific model is black. Other variants within the New Balance 1906 series may be available in different colors and materials.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dirty or stained
Gently brush with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a lightly dampened cloth. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct UK size. If slightly snug, wearing them with thinner socks or using a shoe stretcher might help. Suede can also stretch slightly with wear.
Jagged cuts appear to be fraying
This is part of the design aesthetic. Minor fraying is normal for this 'Protection Pack' style. If significant fraying occurs, consult the retailer or manufacturer.
