Soho's iconic Footpatrol has joined forces with New Balance to present a truly unique iteration of the 1906R trainer with an exclusive colourway drawing inspiration from the fascinating world of X-ray's.
This New Balance 1906R colourway transcends typical sneaker design by incorporating elements reminiscent of X-ray imagery featuring subtle teal hues and deep orange accents, a colour palette that mirrors the tones found in X-ray scans. Featuring a midsole unit inspired by the intersection of core bone and fibrous muscle, creating a dynamic and structurally sound foundation. The use of technical, translucent materials further enhances the sneaker's aesthetic, offering a visual representation of varying levels of radiation absorption.
One of the standout features of this sneaker is its hidden insole details, which add an extra layer of intrigue and craftsmanship. These elements are not immediately visible, much like the inner workings of the human body revealed through X-rays.
Since its inception in 2002, Footpatrol has been a cornerstone of the sneaker community in London, providing the most sought-after footwear, apparel, and accessories. Known for stocking top releases from brands like NikeLab, Jordan Brand, Adidas Consortium, PUMA, Converse Incubate, and Vault by VANS, Footpatrol has also made a name for itself through exclusive collaborations.
The Footpatrol x New Balance 1906R exclusive release is a masterclass in design innovation and artistic expression with its meticulous craftsmanship and unique aesthetic, this collaboration is sure to leave a lasting impact.
