The New Balance 1906R &#8220;Indigo&#8221; was first spotted by sneaker site Up To Date.<\/p>\n<p>Constructed in a mix of mesh and suede, this pair is unique in that its mesh upper sports an indigo blue hue that&#8217;s reminiscent of the Japanese Indigo dyeing technique. Leather overlays in a lighter shade of slate blue lay atop the mesh. Part of the outsoles are colored in varying shades of indigo too, adding to its rustic DIY aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>Not much is known about this pair and colorway, but expect to see the same New Balance tech like ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning, along with the 1906R&#8217;s N-Lock lacing system on this model.
