The New Balance 1906R Cordura Desert Tan is a performance sneaker released as a collaboration with fabric producer Cordura. This iteration of the New Balance 1906R features an upper made of Cordura fabric in a Tan color for durability and increased performance. Tan leather overlays form lines across the upper as is traditional with this model, including forming the mudguard and toe cap, while the New Balance N appears on both sides outlined in silver. The lateral heel features 1906 branding next to a Cordura tag, while the heel features a silver NB logo. The shoe has a tan Nergy midsole for support and a classic rubber outsole. The standout feature of this shoe is the Cordura fabric upper, which truly brings the durability of this design to the next level. The New Balance 1906R Cordura Desert Tan was first released on November 12, 2022, for an initial retail price of $155.
