FAQs

Are these trainers good for wide feet?

The New Balance 1906 trainers are designed with a unisex fit. While they offer a comfortable feel, individuals with particularly wide feet may want to consider trying them on or looking for specific wide-fit options if available.

How do the different technologies (ABZORB, N-Ergy, Stability Web) work together?

ABZORB absorbs shock, N-Ergy provides responsive energy return, and Stability Web supports the midfoot. Together, they aim to offer a cushioned, propulsive, and stable ride, reducing impact and enhancing performance.

Can I wear these for professional running competitions?

The New Balance 1906 trainers offer advanced features suitable for training and recreational running. For professional competition, specific racing shoes designed for maximum performance and minimal weight might be more appropriate.

What is the primary advantage of the ORTHOLITE sockliner?

The ORTHOLITE sockliner provides long-term cushioning, breathability, and has antibacterial properties to help manage odor and moisture, contributing to overall foot comfort.

How durable is the N-durance construction?

N-durance is a highly durable rubber compound used in the outsole, particularly in high-wear areas, to extend the shoe's lifespan and provide reliable traction.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and construction. Hand-wash gently using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

What is the difference between the "Graphite" color and other variants?

The "Graphite" designation refers to the primary grey color of the shoe, often accented with blue as mentioned in the description. Other variants may differ in color combinations or materials.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort during initial wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the correct size has been selected.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB and ORTHOLITE components may compress with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles if significant cushioning loss is perceived.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the N-durance sole provides good grip, it is not designed for extreme wet conditions. Exercise caution on slippery surfaces.

Material discoloration

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean according to care instructions to maintain color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance 1906 trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and performance.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult unisex use, suitable for a wide range of foot shapes. They are compatible with various athletic activities and casual wear scenarios.

Care: To maintain the longevity and appearance of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the synthetic upper with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  2. Cleaning the Sole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the N-durance sole. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Insoles: If removable, the ORTHOLITE insoles can be taken out for separate cleaning with mild soap and water, then air-dried completely.
