FAQs
Is the New Balance 1906R good for running?
While inspired by performance runners, this model is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual use.
How do I clean the metallic accents?
Gently wipe with a soft, microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that could strip the metallic finish.
Does the shoe fit true to size?
The 1906R generally follows standard sizing; however, the structured TPU cage may feel more snug than non-caged sneakers.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the insole is removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if preferred.
How often should I clean them?
Regular maintenance involves wiping them down after use in wet or dusty conditions to preserve the leather.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the laces, specifically around the N-Lock area, to allow the TPU cage to expand slightly.
Creasing on the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help maintain the structure and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1906R trainers remain in optimal condition, proper care is essential:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short intervals initially to allow the leather upper to conform to your foot.
- Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied to a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the silver metallic accents.
- Lacing: Adjust the N-Lock system to your preferred tension to maximize the stability features of the shoe.
