The CAYL x New Balance 1906R Collection Releases On August 23rd

Updated August 20th, 2024: The CAYL x New Balance 1906R in both “Fire Gold Yellow” and “Floating Blue” release on August 23rd. While only a launch via CAYL channels was originally expected for that date, it seems that a wide New Balance drop will also take place then. Take a look at official campaign images and check in to this article and our Sneaker Release Dates page as the release draws closer for the most current info.

The New Balance 1906R persists as the Boston brand’s foremost collaborative silo. Massive names like Action Bronson, Salehe Bembury and James Whitmore have graced the silhouette in 2024 alone, and now a new challenger enters the ring. CAYL (Climb As You Love) a Korean hiking/climbing brand, is set to unveil their take on the tech runner on August 23rd.

In stark contrast to the layerd layout of the 1906R, CAYL’s edition swaps to a fully nylon upper, with graphic replacements for the overlays and a geometric grid pattern throughout. The imprint’s utilitarian, functional design language crops up throughout the shoe, but particularly with cord laces and a snap closure, as well as the pull tab on the rear that calls the retooled 1906U to mind.

Their mountain logo appears towards the heel and on the tongue to emphasize the collaborative nature here, while an overwhelmingly natural palette sets the tone for the collection as a whole, pasting together notes of deep beige, khaki and crystalline yellow. Importantly, a second colorway in teal & black is expected to join this shoe, but official images of this capacity evade us at the time of writing.

The CAYL New Balance 1906R drops on August 23rd, retailing for $160. Catch detailed retailer images just ahead while we wait for further info.
