FAQs
Are the New Balance 1906R shoes good for running?
While they utilize running-specific cushioning technologies, they are categorized primarily as lifestyle trainers suitable for walking and daily wear.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, large-holed white mesh combined with metallic synthetic leather overlays.
How do I clean the metallic leather parts?
Wipe the metallic synthetic leather gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubs.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
Yes, the 1906R includes structural supports derived from heritage models like the 860v2, providing a stable midfoot and supportive arch.
Can I remove the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, which is convenient if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt trapped in the mesh upper
Use a soft dry brush to gently sweep the particles out of the mesh holes before wiping with a damp cloth.
Squeaking sounds during walking
Ensure the insole is properly seated and dry; moisture trapped under the insole is a common cause of internal shoe noise.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the 1906R uses high-performance technical mesh, avoid putting these shoes in a washing machine, as the heat and agitation can damage the synthetic overlays. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and a damp cloth with mild soap for the leather overlays. Ensure you allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape and cushioning properties. For sizing, the 1906R generally follows standard New Balance sizing, providing a structured, supportive fit through the midfoot.
