New Balance 1906R - Black Leather - UK 11

The Protection Pack series is known for its distinctive, distressed aesthetic, combining various materials with a worn-in look that adds character and uniqueness to each pair.

The New Balance 1906R Protection Pack is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker. While it offers good cushioning for walking, it is not optimized for high-impact activities like running.

For distressed leather, use a damp cloth. For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt and a suede eraser for tougher marks. Avoid soaking the materials.

NERGY is New Balance's proprietary cushioning technology. The branding on the midsole indicates the presence of this shock-absorbing and responsive foam.

The black colorway and retro-inspired design make them very versatile. They pair well with casual outfits like jeans, shorts, and joggers. For a bolder look, they can also complement streetwear styles.

The NLOCK system is integrated with the N logo and midfoot structure to provide a secure and locked-in feel around the foot, enhancing stability and fit.

The New Balance 1906D Protection Pack Black Leather was released on July 22nd, 2023.

The distressed aesthetic is a deliberate design feature. Minor variations in the distressing are normal and contribute to the unique character of each pair.

This can sometimes occur due to new materials rubbing together. Try wearing them for a few more days to allow them to break in. If the issue persists, check that the insoles are properly seated.

Due to the nature of dyed leather and suede, some color transfer might occur, especially when new or exposed to moisture. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks until the shoes have been worn a few times or treated with a color-protecting spray.

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. If discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles for additional arch support or cushioning.
