New Balance 1906 Protection Pack Black develops the familiar New Balance 1906D profile through a specific colour treatment and details created for this edition. The black colorway mutes the contrast and lets the irregular layering do the work. The technical 1906D running profile is joined by irregular Protection Pack edges and layers that give the altered appearance an intentionally raw character. Combined cushioning softens steps, while the heel structure and segmented rubber outsole support stability and traction.
