FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?

The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed with retro running aesthetics and modern cushioning for everyday comfort and light training. They are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running, which typically requires specialized performance footwear.

How do I determine the best UK size for me?

It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the New Balance sizing guide available online. Consider your typical shoe size in other brands, but be aware that sizing can vary. Trying them on in-store is the most reliable method.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and structure of the shoe. Hand wash using mild soap and water as described in the care instructions.

What is the purpose of the Stability Web technology?

The Stability Web technology is integrated into the midsole to provide enhanced midfoot support and torsional stability, helping to prevent excessive twisting of the foot and improving overall balance.

Are there other color options available for the 1906R series?

The 1906R series is available in various colorways. This guide focuses on the specific White colourway, but other options may be available from New Balance retailers.

What is the main difference between ACTEVA LITE and ABZORB SBS cushioning?

ACTEVA LITE is a lightweight foam midsole compound that provides cushioning and durability. ABZORB SBS is specifically used in the heel for superior shock absorption and impact protection.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Consult the New Balance sizing chart and consider trying on different sizes if possible. Note that UK sizing may differ from US or EU sizing.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot type.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

The N-ergy outsole provides good traction on dry surfaces. Exercise caution on very wet or slippery conditions as with any footwear.

Mesh material appears delicate

While breathable, the mesh requires careful handling. Avoid contact with sharp objects and excessive abrasion to prevent tears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. While designed for running-inspired aesthetics, they are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light training rather than high-impact sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Uppers: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to gently clean the mesh and synthetic surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash or place in a mesh bag within a washing machine.
  3. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is trapped in the outsole grooves.
  4. Drying: Air dry the trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine dry.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain shape and material integrity.
