Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 1906 Trainers are unisex shoes designed for adults seeking a blend of comfort and durability. Their key benefit lies in the ABZORB midsole technology, which provides excellent impact absorption for everyday wear. A potential consideration is that while described as unisex, some colorways may have a more traditionally female aesthetic.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?
The New Balance 1906 Trainers are designed for casual wear and light training. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the demands of marathon running. For marathon performance, consider specialized running shoes.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the New Balance sizing chart. Trying them on is the best way to ensure a comfortable fit. These are unisex trainers, so fit can be a key consideration.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
The rubber outsole provides grip, but the materials used in the upper may not be fully waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to excessive water.
What does 'ABZORB' technology do?
ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary technology that absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance. This helps to reduce the shock experienced by your feet during movement.
How often should I clean my trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, particularly after wearing them in dusty or dirty conditions. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain their appearance. Avoid excessive cleaning to preserve the material integrity.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the New Balance 1906 Trainers are designed as a unisex style, suitable for adults of any gender.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the laces using the lace-up fastening. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are snug from the bottom up. For a looser fit, slacken the laces. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe or with the sole. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. If the squeaking persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help, or contact customer support if the issue is significant.
Reduced cushioning over time
The ABZORB midsole is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. For prolonged comfort, ensure you are not using them for activities beyond their intended casual/light training scope.

Compatibility: The New Balance 1906 Trainers are designed for adult wear and are suitable for most casual outfits. They pair well with jeans, athletic wear, and casual shorts.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and water, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
