The 1906L is New Balance's running-shoe-turned-penny-loafer: the 1906 upper with its open-hole mesh and wavy synthetic overlays, rebuilt on the 860v2 sole with ABZORB SBS pods at the heel. It is a fashion statement first and a dress shoe second, so it suits people who want a loafer look with sneaker comfort and don't need a leather-soled shoe for formal wear. Against a classic penny loafer it is softer and more cushioned; against a plain 1906 sneaker it trades laces and breathability for a slip-on fit. Reviewers generally find it true to size and comfortable out of the box, though the mesh upper and chunky sole divide opinion.

Owners like the 1906L as a comfortable, head-turning hybrid and say it fits true to size. Most criticism centers on the mesh upper being hard to keep clean and the sole being too chunky for dressier outfits.

The juxtaposition of sneakers and more formal attire isn’t a new idea, but it’s never been done quite like this. The new 1906 Loafer takes the silhouette’s signature features – the open holed mesh upper, the curvilinear synthetic overlays, and the 860v2 sole unit, featuring segmented ABZORB SBS pods at the heel – and reimagines them in the shape of a classic penny loafer. This design doesn’t just blur the lines between high-performance heritage and cutting-edge fashion; it erases the distinction altogether.
