FAQs

What makes the cushioning system effective?

The cushioning system is effective due to its multi-component design, featuring flexible ACTEVA LITE for responsiveness, N-ergy for shock absorption, and ABZORB SBS pods in the heel for targeted impact protection.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While the 1906 offers good cushioning and support, they are primarily designed for trainers and everyday wear. For high-impact or specialized running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure you measure both length and width for the best fit, as these are unisex trainers.

Can the synthetic overlays be damaged by water?

The synthetic overlays are generally water-resistant, but prolonged submersion or excessive moisture should be avoided. Clean them with a damp cloth rather than soaking.

What is the main difference between the 1906 and other New Balance models like the 2002R?

The 1906 shares a similar sole unit with models like the 2002R and 860v2, but features a distinct upper design with open-holed mesh and unique curvilinear overlays, offering a refined take on performance heritage.

How should I store my New Balance 1906 trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat. Using a shoe tree or keeping them in their original box can help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try ensuring laces are tied correctly, or if it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. If discomfort persists, consult the manufacturer's guidelines for potential fitting adjustments or consider an insole insert.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Gently clean with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Dab with a damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Avoid excessive moisture.
