FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 1906R 'Silver' are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good support for walking and daily activities, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running and may not provide the necessary cushioning or support for serious training.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
It is recommended to consult the official New Balance sizing guide, which typically provides measurements for foot length corresponding to UK shoe sizes. Trying them on in-store if possible is the best way to ensure a perfect fit.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for leather trainers as it can damage the materials and affect the shoe's structure and appearance. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the '1906R' series known for?
The 1906R series by New Balance is known for drawing inspiration from classic, archival designs, blending retro aesthetics with modern comfort and technology for contemporary wear.
How should I store my New Balance 1906R trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and protect the leather.
Is the silver color prone to fading?
The silver finish is designed for durability. However, like all finishes, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or abrasive cleaning can potentially affect its appearance over time. Proper care will help maintain the color.
What kind of socks are best with these trainers?
Any comfortable socks will work. For optimal comfort and breathability, consider moisture-wicking athletic socks or classic cotton crew socks.
Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for a comfortable fit.
Scuff marks on leather
Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for silver/white footwear and a soft cloth. For minor scuffs, a specialized leather eraser might be effective.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
New soles can sometimes be slick. Lightly scuffing the sole on a rough surface (like concrete, carefully) can improve traction. Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris.
