FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 1906R generally follows standard sizing, though the structural design may feel slightly more snug than minimal runners.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
While capable of light athletic activity, these are primarily designed as lifestyle-performance trainers rather than dedicated long-distance running shoes.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals.
What is the purpose of the TPU cage?
The TPU cage is designed to add structural support to the upper, helping to lock the foot in place and provide greater stability during movement.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The leather construction offers better protection than mesh trainers, but they are not fully waterproof and should be treated with a leather water repellent if used in wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Laces feeling too tight across the midfoot
Loosen the lacing starting from the eyelets near the toe box and work your way up to redistribute tension.
Creasing on the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 1906R trainers maintain their performance, begin by adjusting the N-Lock lacing system to match your foot's natural arch. For care, wipe down the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove dust. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent leather cracking. Use a leather-safe conditioner periodically to keep the material supple, and store them in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture accumulation.
