FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
No, the New Balance 1906U trainers are primarily designed for fashion and casual wear. They offer comfort for walking but do not provide the specialized cushioning and support required for running or high-impact sports.
What material are the New Balance 1906U trainers made of?
These trainers are made from leather, providing a durable and classic aesthetic. The specific finish may include smooth leather or nubuck elements.
How should I clean my Arctic Grey trainers?
Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What does '1906U' signify in the product name?
'1906U' refers to the specific series or model line from New Balance. This designation helps identify the unique design, features, and technology associated with that particular release.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Applying a leather protector spray can offer some water resistance, but they are best suited for dry conditions.
What is the closure type for these trainers?
The closure type for these trainers is lacing, which allows for a customizable and secure fit.
Where can I find other sizes for the New Balance 1906U?
You can check the product details or the retailer's listings for available sizes. The product information indicates that other sizes, such as UK 4, 5, 5.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9, and 10.5, are also available.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a more relaxed fit. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the material needs a brief breaking-in period.
Leather appears dull or scuffed.
Clean the shoes with a damp cloth. For scuffs, you may use a neutral or grey leather polish to restore color and shine. Ensure the polish is suitable for nubuck or smooth leather as appropriate for the shoe's finish.
Laces are frayed or worn.
Replace the laces with new ones of a similar length and type. This is a simple way to refresh the look of the trainers.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean the leather, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the material.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can deform the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the color.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, though always test on an inconspicuous area first.
