FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The 1906R is designed with lifestyle and comfort features. While it handles light activity and walking perfectly, it is not categorized as a dedicated long-distance running shoe.

How should I clean the synthetic and mesh upper?

Wipe with a damp cloth using mild soap. Do not submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.

What is the benefit of the Stability Web?

The Stability Web is a structural insert in the outsole that provides arch support to prevent the foot from twisting, promoting a more stable gait.

Does this shoe come in different widths?

This model features a standard fit. The TPU heel cage creates a snug, secure lockdown that may feel tighter than traditional lifestyle sneakers.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.

Troubleshooting

Feeling too tight around the heel

Ensure the laces are not pulled excessively tight at the top eyelet. The TPU cage provides natural containment; loosening the lacing profile slightly can alleviate pressure.

Visible dirt on mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt from the mesh weave. Avoid scrubbing with abrasive materials which may fray the synthetic fibres.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent arch support via Stability Web tech
  • Lightweight yet durable construction
  • Sophisticated retro design suitable for casual style
  • Highly responsive heel cushioning for impact absorption

Cons

  • Not specifically designed for high-mileage distance running
  • Synthetic materials require specific cleaning methods
  • Fit may feel narrow for some foot shapes due to the heel cage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers are ready for wear right out of the box. To maintain the structural integrity and aesthetic of the mesh and synthetic upper, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild detergent to spot clean the mesh. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the synthetic overlays and adhesive.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent material warping.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shape of the TPU heel cage over time.
  4. Compatibility: The sizing is consistent with standard adult UK sizing; however, ensure you check the specific fit for your foot width as the heel cage provides a snug, locked-in sensation.
