The New Balance story
A reissue of an early-2000s New Balance running silhouette, the 1906R pairs ACTEVA LITE foam in the midsole with an ABZORB SBS insert under the heel for extra impact absorption. An N-ergy rubber outsole and engineered mesh upper round out a build that reads as a technical runner rather than a straight retro reissue.
New Balance opened in Boston in 1906 making arch supports before turning to running shoes built around width and fit rather than a single mold. The company has stayed one of the few major athletic brands to keep meaningful manufacturing in the United States and United Kingdom, a fact stitched into its "Made in USA" grey label runs. Its 990 and 574 series turned dad-shoe comfort into a design language that dominates lifestyle sneaker culture today.
