Seasonal Collection: New Balance 1906R’s Latest Autumn/Winter Styles

New Balance 1906R
Remaining a staple within the racing sneaker community for well over a decade, the New Balance 1906R has remained top-of-mind for the Boston-based brand featuring a slew of collaborative installments with GANNI, AURALEE, and Salehe Bembury.
 
While the latter efforts have strayed further from the late 2000s racing solutions’ original compositions, the timeless mesh runner has since embarked upon a neutral-exclusive collection of colorways. Executing a quartet of compositions perfect for the transition from fall to winter, the 1906R constructs its synonymous mesh base and synthetic textile overlays in true form to that of its circa 2009 tooling.
 
Introduced via a greyscale ensemble, black and “Steel” accents provide a layered aesthetic atop the “Brighton Grey” base. Tonal olive hues then fill the silhouette’s second initiative from the N-ergy outsole to the inner lining. Jet-black shades fill the mesh of another pair with bright grey TPU overlays and even brighter “Pink Moon” mid-foot logos while the final iteration remains anchored in a fall-friendly “Mocha” scheme.
 

 
The New Balance 1906R Fall/Winter collection is currently available for a retail price of $155.

    Official Release Date for the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen”

    The Boston Celtics’ season is unfolding just as they had envisioned, with only one loss to report and a striking 30 points per game average from their star player, Jayson Tatum.

    After a more eventful off-season than what championship teams typically endure, Tatum and his Boston teammates have skillfully tuned out distractions, staying focused on their goal of repeating their success early in the season. In line with this theme, the upcoming #0 Jordan Tatum 3 is about to launch a “Zen” colorway that embodies this same sense of tranquility.

    The motif of serenity has been a consistent element in Jayson Tatum’s sneaker line, especially highlighted by the “Vortex” version of the Tatum 2, which explicitly connects to this theme: our previous coverage noted that the design reflects Tatum’s calm demeanor, reminiscent of the peacefulness found in a vortex above water.

    While this new model opts for a more subdued color palette, its execution remains true to that original concept; the graceful cut-outs in the upper design resemble calm waters, serving as a guiding inspiration throughout Tatum’s signature collection.

    As mentioned earlier, the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen” is set to launch on November 14th via Nike.com, available in sizes for the whole family. The adult versions will be priced at $125.

    For a closer look at this appealing colorway, check out the official images below, and make sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers page for updates.

    Jason Kelce’s Field Goal Attempt In Timberlands Will End In A $100,000 Donation

    This Saturday, November 2nd, Jason Kelce will take on a field goal challenge while wearing Wheat Timbs during the ESPN College GameDay broadcast of the highly anticipated Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup. The idea for this challenge originated when college student Daniel Villasenor successfully kicked a field goal in Vans checkerboard slip-ons, winning an impressive $100,000 earlier in October.

    Initially discussed on the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast with special guest Pat McAfee, this lighthearted challenge quickly evolved into a real event. The NFL legend, Jason Kelce, is set to attempt scoring three points while donning the famous Wheat Timberlands.

    In an exciting twist, VF Corp — the parent company of both Vans and Timberland — has stepped in with a generous $100,000 commitment to the charity Soles4Souls, aimed at supporting hurricane relief efforts. Fortunately for Jason, VF Corp has assured that the funds will be donated regardless of whether his kick is successful or not.

    Make sure to tune in to ESPN College GameDay on November 2nd, 2024, to witness this unique field goal attempt for yourself!
