FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic activities?

While the 1906L Loafer incorporates athletic cushioning technology for comfort, it is designed primarily for fashion and casual wear, not for high-impact sports or running.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Periodically use a leather conditioner.

Can I wear these loafers in wet weather?

The leather material is not inherently waterproof. While a protective spray can offer some resistance, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage.

What is the main difference between this loafer and a traditional New Balance sneaker?

The 1906L Loafer takes the design cues and comfort technology from the 1906 sneaker but reinterprets them into a slip-on loafer silhouette with premium leather materials, offering a more sophisticated aesthetic.

Is the sizing true to size for a loafer?

The sizing generally follows standard New Balance adult footwear sizing. It's recommended to check specific size guides and consider personal preference for fit, especially with slip-on styles.

What does ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning do?

ABZORB provides shock absorption, while N-ergy offers responsive cushioning. Together, they aim to provide a comfortable and supportive feel underfoot, reducing impact during wear.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or stiff

Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Ensure the shoes are clean before conditioning.

Scuffs or minor marks on the leather

Use a leather cleaner designed for the specific type of leather. For light scuffs, a leather balm or polish in a matching color might help.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, wearing them for short periods can help break them in. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is localized.

Saddle strap feels loose

This is a design feature for ease of wear. If it feels excessively loose, ensure the shoe fits correctly otherwise. The strap is not designed for adjustability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The New Balance 1906L Loafer requires no assembly or setup. Upon receiving your pair, they are ready to wear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort.

Compatibility:

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and appearance of the leather upper:

  1. Cleaning: Regularly wipe the leather with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. Follow the product's instructions for application.
  3. Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather to offer protection against the elements and spills. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Storage: Store the loafers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and prevent creasing. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
