FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
Yes, they are designed as trainers and provide the support needed for running and light athletic play.
How do I choose the right size?
Consult a standard UK kids' sizing chart and measure your child's foot while they are standing to ensure proper room for growth.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild detergent is the safest way to clean them.
Are these trainers water-resistant?
They are constructed with athletic materials that are not inherently waterproof, so they should be avoided in heavy rain.
What is the primary difference between this and other New Balance series?
The 1906 series specifically focuses on the 2000s retro-runner style while integrating modern comfort technologies.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight after a period of wear
Check if the laces are overtightened; otherwise, the child may have outgrown the size and requires a half or full size up.
Surface dirt and debris on the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt before using a damp cloth with mild soap.
Insole sliding during activity
Ensure the insole is pushed firmly into the heel cup; if it persists, consider replacing it with a secured athletic insert.
Pros and Cons

Cons
- Requires regular cleaning to keep the fabric looking new

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before wearing, ensure that the shoes are properly laced to provide the right level of mid-foot lockdown. For sizing, since these are UK kids' sizes, it is recommended to allow for a small amount of growth room at the toe. To keep the trainers in peak condition, wipe them down with a damp cloth after exposure to mud or dirt. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the specialized materials; instead, allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the shape of the foam and fabric components.
