Name: New Balance 1906A “Thunder Brown”
Colorway: Thunder Brown/Slate Grey
SKU: U19066U8
MSRP: $170 USD
Release Date: Spring 2026
New Balance continues to expand its retro-runner lineup with the upcoming “Thunder Brown” colorway for the 1906A silhouette. Pairing breathable mesh with rugged materials, the Boston brand delivers a design that bridges the gap between performance engineering and lifestyle durability.
The upper is constructed with an open slate-grey mesh, providing a highly breathable foundation. Contrasting thunder-brown suede overlays - featuring the 1906A’s signature raw, unfinished edges - infuse the silhouette with a deconstructed aesthetic. These panels cut sharply across the midfoot, creating a layered look that remains cohesive despite its intricate lines.
As with previous iterations, functionality anchors the design. A rigid heel cage adds stability without overpowering the profile, while the "N" logo is integrated into the lacing system to maintain a utilitarian vibe. Underfoot, the tooling combines cream and grey foam with visible ABZORB pods for responsive cushioning, finished with a dark, aggressive outsole for daily wear. Expect this pair to arrive sometime this Spring.
