The highly anticipated New Balance 1906 Loafer returns in a striking black colorway, marking another milestone in the brand’s innovative footwear lineup. After immediately selling out its silver debut, New Balance strategically launches this refined iteration at a price point of $160.
The black edition showcases meticulous attention to detail with premium mesh and leather construction throughout. A distinctive glossy TPU heel counter adds subtle sophistication while maintaining the model’s groundbreaking hybrid design. The only contrast is the silver 1906L branding beneath the collar, creating a refined balance.
