FAQs
What is ABZORB midsole technology?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam blend that provides excellent cushioning and compression resistance, designed to absorb impact forces and enhance comfort during wear.
How does Stability Web outsole technology benefit me?
Stability Web is an arch support technology integrated into the outsole that helps provide rigidity and stability to the midfoot, reducing twisting and offering better support for your arches during movement.
Are New Balance 1906R trainers suitable for running?
While 'inspired by 2000s runners,' these are generally considered lifestyle trainers designed for comfort in daily wear, walking, and light activities. For serious or high-performance running, New Balance offers specialized running shoes.
How should I clean my 1906R trainers?
For the synthetic upper, use a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and cold water. Gently clean the surface and air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
New Balance trainers generally fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. It's recommended to try them on to ensure the best fit.
Are there other color or size options available for the 1906R model?
Yes, the New Balance 1906R series is available in various colorways and sizes. Please check product listings or your retailer for other available variants like 'Blue Agate', 'Green', 'White', 'Grey', and different UK sizes.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lace closure. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find the most comfortable fit for your foot. Ensure laces are evenly tensioned.
Foot pain or discomfort after prolonged wear.
While the trainers offer excellent cushioning and support, ensure they are the correct size for your feet. Consider if custom insoles might be beneficial if you have specific foot conditions. Also, ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and replacing it. A light sprinkle of baby powder beneath the insole might also help.
Synthetic upper appears dirty or stained.
Clean the synthetic upper using a soft cloth or brush with mild soap and cold water. Gently rub the affected area and allow to air dry completely.
Trainers develop an odor.
Remove the insoles and allow them and the trainers to air out thoroughly. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside the trainers overnight to absorb odors.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your New Balance 1906R trainers is straightforward:
- Lacing: Unlace the trainers sufficiently to easily slide your foot in.
- Fit Adjustment: Once your foot is in, adjust the lace closure to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure no pressure points or excessive looseness.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 1906R trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water to gently clean the synthetic upper. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn dirt, a small amount of diluted detergent can be applied to a cloth and gently rubbed on the affected area.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Odor Control: If odors occur, remove insoles and air them out. Shoe deodorizers or baking soda can also be used inside the trainers.
