The New Balance 1906A “Grey/Midnight” doesn’t try to be loud. It just feels right. It pulls straight from early-2000s running shoes and cleans the look up.

The grey mesh keeps things light. The overlays sit where they should. Midnight navy comes in on the “N,” the heel, and the edges, giving the shoe some bite. That contrast is what saves it from feeling flat.

Underneath, the cushioning does what the 1906 line is known for. ABZORB and N-ergy keep the ride stable and firm. The midsole looks technical, not bulky. It carries runner energy without looking like gym gear.

The New Balance 1906A “Grey/Midnight” releases Spring 2026 for $170 at NewBalance.com and select retailers.
