The New Balance 1906D is part of New Balance's 'Protection Pack' collection. It is a vintage-style sneaker that features an ABZORB midsole and Stability Web technology for superior arch support. The shoe's upper offers construction of deconstructed mesh and suede, with overlay adjustments that match those found in previous 'Protection Pack' releases. Notably lightweight, this throwback sneaker is a stylish and comfortable option for everyday wear.
The New Balance 1906R has a narrow fit, which makes it run slightly small. If you have wider feet, a good recommendation would be to go up by half a size, but staying true to size should be fine if you have narrow feet. This characteristic is quite common in other New Balance models in the 'Protection Pack' family of shoes. From this branch of the family we particularly like the New Balance 1906D Protection Pack Turtledove because its slick black midsole and outsole make a perfect contrast with its upper turtledove colorway.
Staying true to its high-performance running heritage, the New Balance 1906R features N-ergy technology, providing an incredibly comfortable underfoot feel. The cushioning in the shoe offers a blend of foam and rubber that absorbs shock and minimizes the impact on your feet. Meanwhile, the N-ergy technology, made of an engineered gel-like material, not only absorbs impact but also propels you forward. Additionally, the mesh uppers of the shoe ensure breathability and lightweight comfort, making them perfect for all-day wear.
