New Balance has always hit home runs on their collaborations. Not exactly sure if the credit should go to Joe FreshGoods, Aime Leon Dore, Concepts, Bodega, JCrew, JJJJound, Paperboy, or Solebox, and the list goes on. If I forgot to name your company, please send me something to remind me. If I named your company, please send me something to thank me. As you can tell from the list of collaborators, NB knows exactly what they are doing when it comes to partnering with others.
Previous TINT x NB partnerships consisted of the 2002R, 827, and the 860V2 models, respectively. This time it’s the new New Balance 1906R that gets the nod. For those who don’t know, thisisneverthat's core inspiration comes from 90s military and vintage looks. While NB stands for something bigger than sneakers, championing those who are fearlessly driven by their passions. New Balance elevates sport.
The NB 1906R appears to have an upper of the 1906 model and the outsole of the 860V2. Coming in a silver and grey colorway with navy hits around the toe box and other areas. Lastly a yellowish aged midsole seems to finish things off for this pair. This will be the first collab by NB on this particular model with I’m sure more colorways/collaborations to follow.
The thisisneverthat x New Balance 1906R is set to release on August 4th through thisisneverthat online and in-store. Retail is rumored to be $250. Are you looking forward to the release? Who else would you like to see New Balance collaborate with on this model?
