The New Balance 1906L Junya Watanabe MAN Black is a loafer designed as a collaboration between New Balance and Japanese fashion designer Junya Watanabe.
The Junya Watanabe MAN Black New Balance 1906L is made with a mixture of artificial leather and calf leather on the upper. The top of the toe, the tongue, and the forefoot strap are all smooth black leather, while shiny black overlays run around the toe cap, sides, and heel in typical New Balance sneaker fashion. 1906L branding is seen on the outer heel, while Junya Watanabe MAN branding appears on the tongue. The slip-on shoe has a black midsole and outsole, and ABZORB capsules are found in the heel for comfort.
Our favorite thing about this shoe is the mix of loafer and sneaker, which is tastefully done. The New Balance 1906L Junya Watanabe MAN Black was released on October 18, 2024, for $252.
