FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 1906R is built with performance running technology, it is primarily categorized as a lifestyle trainer suitable for daily use and light activity.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe, with your heel locked securely in the TPU cage.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the structural integrity of the TPU cage and the cushioning pods. Stick to hand cleaning with a soft brush.
What is the purpose of the NDurance outsole?
NDurance is a high-durability rubber compound placed in areas of the outsole that experience the most friction to prevent premature wear.
Is this model water-resistant?
No, the open-holed mesh design is optimized for breathability rather than water resistance.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt trapped in the open-holed mesh
Use a dry, soft brush or a compressed air canister to carefully dislodge debris from the mesh pores.
Feeling of stiffness in the midsole
The shoe features technical cushioning that softens with wear. Allow for a 20-30 mile break-in period for the foam to mold to your foot strike.
Odour buildup
Remove the insoles after use and air them out. Use a fabric-safe sneaker deodorizer spray if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1906R trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you select your standard adult size; the TPU heel cage is designed to hold the foot securely, so there is no need to size up for extra room.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the mesh upper. For deeper stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water, but avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Air dry only at room temperature. Avoid placing the shoes near heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can degrade the synthetic overlays and foam cushioning.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry area. Avoid keeping them in damp spaces to prevent odor or material degradation.
