First Look: New Balance 1906L Loafer Surfaces in Sleek Black and Royal Blue
New Balance is blurring the lines between casual and performance once again with the sleek new 1906L Loafer in "Black/Royal Blue." Arriving in the summer of 2025, this slip-on silhouette delivers a refined yet forward-thinking twist on the loafer-runner hybrid.
Swapping out metallic shine for moodier tones, this version balances a matte royal blue upper with deep black and dark grey mesh accents. The design incorporates a subtle, futuristic edge while maintaining a focus on comfort and wearability.
Keeping its unconventional DNA intact, the shoe forgoes laces for an easy-on strap closure, streamlining the silhouette and enhancing its minimalist appeal. Underneath, the 1906R sole unit remains untouched, offering top-tier comfort via the N-ergy cushioning and ABZORB SBS heel pods.
Whether you're seeking bold design or everyday comfort, this model seamlessly blends both with signature New Balance performance technology and a fashion-forward sensibility.
