FAQs

What does 'Refined Future' series mean?

The 'Refined Future' series from New Balance refers to a collection that reinterprets classic silhouettes with a contemporary, often deconstructed and distressed, aesthetic. It blends archival design with futuristic elements for a unique look.

How does the N Lock system work?

The N Lock system is an innovative lacing technology where the shoelaces pass through and are integrated with the iconic New Balance 'N' logo on the side of the shoe. This design helps secure the midfoot, providing enhanced stability and a snugger fit.

Are these sneakers suitable for athletic activities like running?

While New Balance is known for athletic footwear, the 1906A Refined Future is primarily designed for casual wear and style. Its construction prioritizes aesthetics and everyday comfort over specialized athletic performance. For running, New Balance offers specific performance running shoe lines.

What materials are the New Balance 1906A sneakers made of?

These sneakers are crafted with synthetic mesh uppers for breathability and comfort, complemented by distressed leather overlays for their unique aesthetic. They feature a durable rubber sole for traction and longevity.

Is the distressed look permanent or will it wear off?

The distressed look, including the rugged deconstruction and distressed leather, is an intentional and permanent design feature of the 'Refined Future' series. It's part of the shoe's unique character and should not 'wear off' in the sense of disappearing, though natural wear and tear will occur over time like with any footwear.

How do I choose the correct size?

These sneakers are listed in UK sizing. New Balance generally runs true to size. If you have worn New Balance shoes before, we recommend sticking with your usual size. For new users, consulting a New Balance size chart or trying them on if possible is advisable. This specific variant is a UK 8.

Troubleshooting

My sneakers feel too loose or too tight.

Adjust the lace-up closure carefully. The N Lock system allows for precise tightening or loosening by integrating the laces with the side 'N' logo. Experiment to find your most comfortable and secure fit. If persistent, double-check your chosen UK size.

I'm concerned about the 'worn' look of the sneakers.

The 'Refined Future' series is specifically designed with 'rugged deconstruction' and 'distressed leather overlays.' This unique, pre-worn aesthetic is an intentional part of the sneaker's style. It is not a defect, but rather a key design element. Embrace the unique character!

The multicolor design clashes with my outfits.

Consider styling these sneakers as the focal point of your outfit. Pair them with neutral-toned clothing (black, white, grey, denim) to let the multicolor pop. Alternatively, draw one of the colors from the sneaker into another accessory like a hat or jacket to create a cohesive look.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and maintain the unique appearance of your 1906A Refined Future sneakers, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Gentle Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap. Gently wipe the synthetic mesh and distressed leather overlays.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a specialized sneaker cleaner, applying it sparingly to the affected area.
  3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach, abrasive cleaners, or stiff brushes, as these can damage the materials and alter the distressed finish.
  4. Air Dry: After cleaning, allow your sneakers to air dry at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  5. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  6. Maintain Distressed Look: The 'rugged deconstruction' and 'distressed leather' are intentional design features. Avoid attempts to 'clean up' or 'repair' these elements, as they contribute to the sneaker's unique character.
