The latest variant of the New Balance 1906 is getting another colorway. Earlier this year, the 1906A was revealed, a sneaker that built upon the successes of the 1906R, 1906L, 1906U, and 1906D. The silhouette features a chunky design with striking details that stand out in the 'Slate Grey' colorway.
Never change a winning team. This is a thought that most likely played a role in the release of the New Balance 1906A earlier this year. The 1906 silhouette has become one of the most popular designs at New Balance and has been featured in collaborations with names like Action Bronson, Jack Harlow, and CAYL.
The New Balance 1906A gives the classic design a modern twist. The upper features striking, asymmetrical details, and the sneaker is constructed from mesh, leather, and suede materials. Orange accents on the tongue and outsole beautifully contrast with the gray tones of the upper.
The sneaker uses the well-known NERGY technology in the midsole, providing cushioning and comfort. New Balance branding can be seen on the tongue, heel, insole, and side panel.
The New Balance 1906A 'Slate Grey' has already dropped at several retailers, including some Asian markets. It's unclear whether this suggests it will be a regional exclusive or if the rest of the world will follow suit.
