FAQs

What type of activities are the New Balance 1906 trainers best suited for?

These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, walking, standing for long periods, and light athletic training. They offer excellent cushioning and support for these activities.

How do I clean my New Balance 1906 trainers?

Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. For the sole, use a soft brush or damp cloth. Always air dry and avoid direct heat.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While they offer good cushioning, the 1906 trainers are primarily designed for daily wear and lighter activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with different support and cushioning profiles are generally recommended.

What is the primary benefit of the sole technology in the 1906?

The sole technology combines ACTEVA LITE for lightweight flexibility, N-ergy for shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS pods in the heel for enhanced cushioning and stability, reducing impact on joints.

Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the New Balance 1906 trainers are designed as a unisex model, suitable for adults of any gender.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from open-pore mesh, providing breathability, along with curved synthetic overlays for structural support.

How long should I expect to break in these trainers?

The break-in period can vary, but typically a few wears for short durations should suffice for the cushioning to adapt to your foot's shape and provide optimal comfort.

Troubleshooting

Tread feels stiff initially.

The cushioning system may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.

Feet feel warm during prolonged wear.

Ensure socks are breathable and consider cleaning any accumulated debris from the mesh upper that might obstruct airflow.

Slight discomfort in the heel.

Confirm correct sizing. If the size is correct, the ABZORB SBS pods may feel firm at first. Continue to wear them for short periods to allow them to conform to your foot.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a damp cloth using mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
