FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 1906R trainers are designed with comfort and style in mind, featuring advanced cushioning for everyday wear. While they can handle light jogging, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic training.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance, typically based on your foot length in centimeters or inches. For these trainers, it is recommended to select your usual UK shoe size.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The N-ergy outsole provides good traction, but the mesh upper is not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not recommended for heavy rain or wet environments.

What makes the ACTEVA LITE midsole special?

ACTEVA LITE is a New Balance midsole foam that is 24% lighter than standard EVA foam, offering a balance of cushioning and support without adding significant weight to the shoe.

How often should I clean my trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially if they become visibly soiled. Regular spot cleaning will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

What is the main difference between ACTEVA LITE and ABZORB SBS?

ACTEVA LITE is a lightweight foam used throughout the midsole for general cushioning. ABZORB SBS is specifically placed in the heel to provide enhanced shock absorption upon impact.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While the cushioning is designed for durability, extended heavy use can impact its responsiveness. For optimal comfort, consider rotating with other footwear.

Soles becoming slippery

Check the N-ergy outsole for embedded debris that might be affecting grip. Clean the soles with water and a brush if they appear dirty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For best results, spot clean the trainers using a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing.
