Our take on the New Balance 1906 'Great Plains Slate Grey'

The New Balance 1906 is a retro running sneaker revived from the early 2000s, built on a layered mesh and synthetic upper with ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning in the sole. It sits between the 2002R and 860v2 in New Balance's lifestyle line, with more visible tech and a chunkier stance than the 574. It suits people who want a technical-looking everyday sneaker with real running-derived comfort. Owners praise the cushioning and the layered look; some find the fit narrow and the shoe heavier than simpler models.

Questions and answers

How does the 1906 compare with the 2002R?
Both share the same retro-running family and ABZORB cushioning. The 1906 has a more layered, technical upper and a slightly chunkier stance; the 2002R is a bit cleaner and lighter.
Is the 1906 good for wide feet?
It tends to run narrow. If you have wide feet, size up or look at New Balance's wide-fit models instead.
Can you run in the 1906?
It is a lifestyle shoe, not a training runner. The cushioning is comfortable for walking and standing, but it lacks the support and lightness of a modern running shoe.
What cushioning does it use?
The midsole combines ABZORB foam with N-ergy cushioning and a stability web, carried over from New Balance's early-2000s running designs.
Is it breathable in hot weather?
Only moderately. The mesh is covered by synthetic overlays, so the shoe runs warmer than a mesh-only sneaker.
How does it fit compared with the 574?
It fits closer and narrower than the 574 and has a chunkier, more cushioned ride.
