FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The New Balance 1906 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday activities. While they offer good traction and cushioning, they are not specialized athletic shoes for intense sports.
How should I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?
For the mesh areas, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently scrub with a soft brush if needed, and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry.
What does 'Y2K style' refer to?
Y2K style refers to the fashion trends prominent around the year 2000, often characterized by futuristic or retro-futuristic designs, vibrant colors, and a blend of athletic and casual elements. The 1906 trainers incorporate this aesthetic with their design lines and materials.
What is ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning?
ABZORB is a New Balance technology that absorbs heel shock and cushions the impact of each step. N-ergy is a responsive cushioning technology that provides energy return and support.
Can these trainers be worn by both boys and girls?
Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit and style, making them suitable for children of any gender.
What is the best way to ensure the right fit for my child?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it with the New Balance sizing chart. Ensure there is a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe becomes too loose.
How durable are the leather overlays?
The leather overlays are intended to provide durability and structure to the shoe, helping it withstand regular wear and tear. Proper care will help maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure but comfortable fit. Ensure the correct size was purchased based on foot measurement.
Soles appear worn after minimal use.
This may indicate excessive wear on abrasive surfaces or very active use. Check if the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended casual purpose. Inspect for any manufacturing defects.
Dirt or stains on the grey material.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains on mesh, use a soft brush. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Care: To maintain the appearance and condition of the trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to wipe away dirt from the leather and synthetic materials. For mesh areas, a mild soap and water solution can be used sparingly.
