Junya Watanabe MAN Teases a NB1906R Loafer

Paris Fashion Week 2024 is in full swing, and Junya Watanabe MAN showcased what’s to come in Fall/Winter 2024, which included an upcoming New Balance collaboration.

Junya Watanabe and New Balance are not strangers by any means, colabing on the 574, 990v5, and 1500 and linking up on the 1906R at Paris Fashion Week last year. At first glance, it just looks like a regular loafer but it’s all in the details. ‘JUNYA WATANBE MAN’ branding stands out against the black upper as the heel counter and overlays of the 1906R surround the upper. New Balance branding is seen on the tab label as the mesh runner’s midsole is used for a sportier look to the hybrid loafer.

The Junya Watanabe MAN x New Balance 1906R Loafer is expected to drop in Fall/Winter 2024, via Junya Watanabe MAN’s channels. Check out the photos above and keep it locked to Sneaker Freaker for any updates.
