FAQs

Are the New Balance 1906R true to size?

They generally fit true to size, but because of the layered construction and unisex sizing, trying them on with your preferred socks is recommended.

Can I use these for running?

While they utilize performance technology, they are primarily marketed as lifestyle trainers; they are excellent for walking and casual daily use.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft brush to gently remove dust, followed by a mild detergent solution on a cloth to spot clean any stains.

What is the difference between ACTEVA LITE and ABZORB?

ACTEVA LITE is a lightweight, flexible foam for the main midsole, while ABZORB SBS is a specialized material focused on heel cushioning and shock absorption.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The open-hole mesh provides a degree of flexibility, but if you have notably wide feet, you may find the synthetic overlays slightly restrictive initially.

Does this model come in other colors?

Yes, the 1906R series is available in various colorways, including Grey and Blue variations.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure from synthetic overlays

Wear the trainers for short periods indoors to allow the overlays to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the lacing pattern using the top eyelets to secure the heel more firmly against the ABZORB insert.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 1906R Trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Since this is a unisex model, verify your UK size against the standard 1906R sizing charts as the fit may differ from standard performance running models.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh and synthetic areas. For deeper cleaning, use mild soap and water on a damp cloth; avoid submerging the shoes fully.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent synthetic material degradation.
  4. Air Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Never place these trainers in a tumble dryer, as heat can damage the N-ergy and ABZORB foam components.
