How do ACTEVA LITE and ABZORB SBS cushioning differ?
ACTEVA LITE provides lightweight and responsive cushioning, while ABZORB SBS offers superior shock absorption for enhanced comfort and impact protection.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While inspired by running shoes, the 1906R is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For serious running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.
How should I choose my size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing guide and measure your foot. These trainers are designed for a standard fit, but individual foot shapes may vary.

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and structural integrity. Hand washing or spot cleaning is advised.
What is the 'N' logo?

How does the Stability Web technology help?
The Stability Web technology is integrated into the midsole to provide enhanced arch support and torsional stability, contributing to a more secure feel.
Troubleshooting
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For significantly wet conditions, consider alternative footwear designed for wet grip.
Arch support feels too firm initially.
The Stability Web technology may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Mesh upper appears dirty after light use.
Spot clean the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or excessive soaking, which can damage the materials.
