FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906F trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, offering excellent cushioning for everyday comfort. While they can handle light jogging, they are not specialized running shoes and may lack the specific support and features required for intense or long-distance running.

How do I adjust the toggle laces?

To tighten, pull the toggle away from the shoe. To loosen, press the release button on the toggle or slide it towards the shoe. Experiment to find the most comfortable and secure fit for your foot.

What is the primary benefit of ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary cushioning technology that absorbs shock. It helps to reduce the impact on your feet and joints, providing a more comfortable experience during wear.

Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adults of any gender.

How should I clean the snakeskin-style overlays?

Gently wipe the TPU overlays with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.

What kind of support do these trainers offer?

The 1906F trainers offer support through their N-lock webbing for midfoot stability, a cushioned midsole for shock absorption, and a stable outsole for traction.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the trainers feature a mesh upper and are not designed to be waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Toggle laces not staying tight

Ensure the toggle mechanism is fully engaged. If the toggle itself is loose, check if there is a small lock or adjustment feature on the cord that needs tightening.

Discomfort during initial wear

New trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing provides adequate support without being too tight.

Squeaking sound from the shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe base. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it firmly. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might also help.

Mesh upper appears dirty

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for unisex adult wear and are suitable for a variety of casual settings. They pair well with athletic wear, jeans, and shorts.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and TPU overlays with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the midsole and outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  3. Laces: If the toggle laces become dirty, they can often be wiped clean or, if removable, hand-washed with mild soap.
  4. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
