The New Balance 1906R Licorice is a performance shoe whose design was inspired by the 2000s era of running style. This unique colorway of the New Balance 1906R comes with a white and off-white mesh upper. Synthetic overlays in gray and a pink licorice color cross the upper, sectioning off the toe box and forming supports above the arches. The New Balance "N" logo appears on both sides with NLock branding. The heel is supported by a beige TPU heel counter with an NB logo at the back. The midsole features ABZORB technology for extra comfort, and the white, gray, and yellow rubber outsole complete the shoe's look. What stands out about this sneaker is the streamlined licorice colorway of the overlays, as each color complements the other without being too bold. The New Balance 1906R Licorice was released on March 1, 2024, for a price of $155.

Only negative is the white part scuffs easily and the New Balance plastic tab, broke off after 3 uses. Wish the N sign was embroidered or was more durable. Probably won't buy this model again if the N sign is plastic again in the future.

I knew I wanted this shoe when official photos released on social media. It really is a beautiful one. I’m just waiting on two more from the pack to release.It did come with a ton of factory flaws and glue stains but other than that it was fine. Also, when looking down at my foot it does seem a little chunky/bulky(I tried it on, haven’t worn it yet). I think that could just be because of the material though. I am a true 8M in most cases but I did size up on these by a 1/2 a size. I have flat/medium wide feet. Personally, I like to be able to move my toes a bit. I do not like a super snug fit. I suggest going into any retail store that sells 1906s and trying a pair on before purchasing online to avoid the hassle of having to return and reorder if the size doesn’t ... MoreI knew I wanted this shoe when official photos released on social media.

That’s how I knew I needed to size up because like I said, I was waiting for this drop lol.

If you have bunions—I mean, not that I do, I’m just saying—if you have bunions, you’ll know that most NB shoes are uncomfortably narrow in the forefoot unless you go for the EE option This one is different tho and has a bit more room than usual. The ride is bouncy and cush. The garish colorways are perfect for complementing any serious dad fit—i.e. for embarrassing the wife and kids.

Best walking shoes I’ve gotten. I have not taken them off since they arrived. I do my daily walks on a nature with these. Just a great shoe all around as they are stylish as well. Had some minor defects as paint on the mesh which is why I gave the quality a 3.
I love them at first sight. When I put them on the first time I liked the comfyness and style. I would give these a 5 stars but unfortunately after the second wear I noticed the sole of the shoe had gone unglued. What a bummer. I wanted to love them fo reals. I jave other few pairs the 530s and the 9060s but after looking at these in the website decided to purchase and I feel bummed out with the quality. Til tgis day New Balance customer service gives me the run around ugh.
I have a few New Balance sneakers. The color way with the metallic purple is my second favorite pair. I went out with them on and a coworker threw up on them, which ruined them. Luckily I was able to grab another pair before they were sold out.
The only reason I took away a star is because my initial pair had some minor defects in it. I love the 1906r’s. It’s something about the back of the shoe that’s so appealing. I wore my first pair to a baseball game and let’s just say the comfort was A-1. With this latest colorway, I added a little gold accent to the shoe strings. The forest green goes perfectly with my gold and forest green purse
I went to Atlantic City over the weekend. I go to get dressed and I pulled the sneakers out of the box for the first time and I noticed a grey paint mark on my shoe, very disappointing as I only brought these and a pair of slides so I had to wear them. I'm very particular so it bothered me all night. I'll most likely not wear them again it's my loss I guess because I had to wear them. I won't be ordering from the NB site again as I see now I have to inspect the sneakers in person before I purchase them. Very disappointed.
To start I love new balance. There shoes are so cute but stylish. I love to wear more of a street wear style and also have the 2002r protection packs. I was nervous about ordering online but after I read the description about the shoes being “cousins” I knew I needed to try them out for myself. They are amazing! Fit perfect- (same size as my 2002r) (women’s 7.5 men’s 6) go buy them right now!!!
I bought them after being influenced by QoT male lead, and I don't regret it. The shoes are extremely comfy and stylish, especially if you want to use them for smart casual attires with straight or wide pants. About the size, I purchased the same size I use in my Adidas shoes, 39.5 EU.
