Tech Explosion – The New Balance 1906A

17. Juli 2024

The New Balance 1906A takes the aesthetics of early-2000s running shoes and gives it a creative, over-the-top makeover.

While the end result looks markedly different, the New Balance 1906A takes a similar approach to reinterpreting its base model as the Protection Pack did for the 2002.

The upper uses mesh as the base for several layers of deconstructed and exaggerated synthetic overlays, emphasizing the individual design elements behind the 1906 silhouette.

Kept mostly in white and grey, pastel yellow “stains” on the upper elevate the 1906A above other 2000s runners, giving it a distinctly fashion-forward look. This is rounded out by green elements in the heel section of the outsole grounding the color palette.

The Abzorb midsole is the perfect complement to this light shoe and provides supreme comfort on any terrain, accompanying the wearer through the day without becoming a burden. Combined with breathable materials and an Ortholite insole, the 1906A is the perfect piece even in warm temperatures.

The New Balance 1906A is available from July 24 via solebox.com and instore at all solebox locations.
