After months of what has been eager anticipation, the collaboration between Comme des Garçons (CDG) and New Balance has finally landed in the sneaker world.
Revealed during the Junya Watanabe MAN FW23 show in January, this partnership showcases CDG’s unique take on New Balance’s iconic 1906R sneaker.
The CDG x New Balance 1906R sneakers are set to hit online stores exclusively in Japan on November 17, marking an exciting moment for sneaker enthusiasts and fashion aficionados alike. While the official pricing is yet to be confirmed, it’s expected to carry a premium over the standard 1906R (£140/ $170).
The CDG 1906R collection offers two monochromatic colourways ‘white’ and ‘black’, with premium leather overlays adding a touch of luxury to the breathable mesh base. A standout feature is the incorporation of CDG branding into the heel and tongue, setting these sneakers apart from the standard models.
With the Comme des Garçons x New Balance 1906R collaboration finally dropping, sneakerheads in Japan are in for a treat. Whether you’re a collector or simply a fan of unique, stylish sneakers, these are worth keeping an eye out for. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches.
