FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906R is primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not high-performance running. Its cushioning system provides excellent support for walking and light activities.

How do I determine the correct size?

These shoes are true to size for most users. We recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider ordering half a size up for comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.

What materials are used in the shoe?

The upper is constructed from resilient mesh with synthetic 'Mushroom' overlays. The sole is synthetic, while the interior features textile linings.

How should I clean my 1906R shoes?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap or a specialized shoe cleaner for the upper. Avoid machine washing. Air dry away from direct heat.

Is the N-lock lacing system difficult to use?

No, the N-lock lacing system is designed for ease of use. It functions like a standard lacing system but integrates the laces with the side panels for enhanced midfoot lockdown.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the synthetic and textile materials offer some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the materials and cushioning.

What does ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning mean?

ABZORB is a superior blend of foam cushioning and compression set, providing optimal shock absorption. N-ergy is a lightweight, responsive cushioning technology that delivers excellent energy return in the heel, enhancing comfort and responsiveness.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the N-lock lacing system to achieve a more customized and secure fit. Try different lacing techniques for specific areas of discomfort.

Squeaking sound when walking.

Often, squeaking comes from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside of the shoe with talcum powder, and reinserting it. If the sole squeaks, ensure it is dry and clean.

Discoloration or visible dirt on the upper.

Gently clean the textile and synthetic upper with a soft, damp cloth and a mild shoe cleaner. For deeper stains, specialized sneaker cleaning kits are recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Foot discomfort after extended wear.

While the shoe offers ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning, individual foot biomechanics vary. Consider trying aftermarket insoles for additional arch support or cushioning if discomfort persists.

Care

Proper care helps maintain the appearance and longevity of your New Balance 1906R.

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the textile and synthetic upper, gently wipe away dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild shoe cleaner specifically designed for synthetic materials, applying it sparingly and rubbing gently.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a brush or damp cloth to remove dirt from the synthetic sole.
  3. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources, as these can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation and discoloration.
  5. Avoid Submerging: Do not machine wash or submerse the shoes in water, as this can affect the cushioning and adhesive integrity.
