New Balance is reimagining its classic 1906 sneaker into a penny loafer, perfectly blending together formality, wearable comfort, and cutting-edge style in this new shoe. Inspired by the increased popularity of the loafer and a drive for versatility across sport and formal wear, this adaptation of the brand’s 1906 sneaker takes the silhouette’s signature features – the open holed mesh upper, the curvilinear synthetic overlays, and the 860v2 sole unit, featuring segmented ABZORB SBS pods at the heel – and reimagines them in the shape of a classic penny loafer.
