Official Look at the New Balance 1906L Loafer "Black/Royal Blue"
Name: New Balance 1906L Loafer "Black/Royal Blue"Colorway: Black/Royal Blue-Dark GreySKU: U1906LARRetail Price: $210 USDRelease Date: Summer 2025Where to Buy: New BalanceNew Balance continues to challenge conventional footwear boundaries with the upcoming release of the 1906L Loafer "Black/Royal Blue." Expected to hit shelves in Summer 2025, this latest iteration of the brand's bold loafer-sneaker hybrid offers a darker, more understated yet equally captivating take on its audacious design. While previous iterations have leaned into more vibrant or metallic hues, the "Black/Royal Blue" colorway presents a sophisticated, almost stealthy proposition. The upper features a matte royal blue finish, which provides a striking contrast against dark grey and black mesh underlays. This combination lends the shoe a futuristic flair while maintaining a sense of refined coolness. True to its hybrid nature, the design discards traditional laces in favor of a convenient slip-on strap, emphasizing both ease and a minimalist aesthetic. The upper's construction, while embracing the loafer silhouette for laid-back style, still nods to its performance runner origins with a mesh toe box and bold synthetic overlays. Underneath the unconventional upper lies the unchanged, performance-oriented sole unit of the 1906R. This means the 1906L Loafer retains the exceptional comfort and support that New Balance is known for, featuring the N-ergy outsole for superior shock absorption and ABZORB SBS pods at the heel.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
