The New Balance 1906R sneakers, like their "cousins" the 2002R and 860v2, feature a sole that combines advanced technologies, including the flexible ACTEVA LITE cushioning, the N-ergy shock absorption system, and segmental ABZORB SBS cushioning in the heel. The upper, with an open-hole mesh and curved synthetic overlays, reflects a hi-tech, modern approach while maintaining a perfect balance of comfort and performance. This unique interpretation of design conventions from the past results in a shoe that blends tradition and innovation in a stylish and high-performing way.
