The New Balance 1906R ‘Dark Silver Metallic/Pink’ is a prime example of the successful fusion of retro tech aesthetics and modern lifestyle. The colourway is heavily inspired by the Y2K design of the early 2000s – with a futuristic touch that works both on the street and in everyday life.
The upper is made of open-pored mesh in dark grey, reinforced with curved synthetic overlays in dark silver metallic. Neon pink details in the N-Lock lacing system and branding provide targeted contrasts. In addition, orange accents on the heel and tongue add a subtle pop of colour that breaks up the overall technical look.
Under the hood, the 1906R features a combination of ACTEVA LITE cushioning, ABZORB SBS pods in the heel and an N-ergy outsole – technologies familiar from New Balance's performance models that provide noticeable comfort. The TPU heel cap and Stability Web technology under the arch provide additional stability.
With its dynamic construction, eye-catching colour scheme and functional base, the ‘Dark Silver Metallic/Pink’ is a real highlight for fans of the tech runner wave – and a worthy representative of the ever-growing 1906R line.
