The two brands have joined forces to create a new version of the 1906. The classic silhouette originally debuted in 2006. The 1906 is part of the ongoing partnership between New Balance and Aimé Leon Dore. That partnership started in 2019 with the 997 and has since expanded to include the 550, the 993, the 650R, and more. The collaboration celebrates the heritage and innovation of both brands, as well as their shared love for New York City.
The updates on the 1906
The new 1906 features a mesh upper with shiny and exaggerated synthetic overlays that recall the early 2000s aesthetic. The colorway is a mix of cream with green hues, with subtle branding on the tongue, heel, and midsole. The shoe also boasts some of New Balance’s signature technologies. N-ergy cushioning and ABZORB sole help for optimal comfort and support, and a rubber outsole for durability and traction. The shoe is designed to offer a smooth and responsive ride for runners of all levels.
