[Update 27 May 2024] After months of anticipation, rapper Action Bronson has finally announced the release date for his first colorway of the collaborative New Balance 1906R collection. The “Rosewater” edition, inspired by aerobics aesthetics, is set to hit shelves on 31 May.

[Update 30 Jan 2024] A new image of the Action Bronson x New Balance 1906R “Rosewater” has just surfaced on his official Instagram account, @bambambaklava. Check it out while we still wait for an official release date, rumored to be sometime in Spring 2024.

A while back, Action Bronson showcased two never-before-seen New Balance 1906Rs—later revealed to be his upcoming collaborations in 2024. Now, a third colorway has been teased by Bam Bam himself on Instagram, much to the delight of his fans and NB-heads everywhere.

Officially, a singular outsole shot of the new Action Bronson x New Balance 1906R “Rosewater” has been teased, but thanks to @charlie_gafken we get a much clearer view of the sneaker.

While the previous “Medusa Azul” and “Scorpius” pairs look similar in terms of construction, Bam Bam approaches the “Rosewater” design slightly differently. A white translucent layer forms over the 1906R’s upper, diffusing the white and pink mesh elements beneath. Blue is then applied on the eyestays and profile “N” logo, while pink returns on the heel counter. To round the design off, a gum hue is applied to the midsole.

Take a first look at the upcoming Action Bronson Bam Bam x New Balance 1906R “Rosewater” via the top slider above. It’s currently slated for an arrival in Spring 2024 alongside its siblings. Stay tuned for more information.
