Multi-talented American rapper Action Bronson developed an affinity for sneaker culture thanks to his mother, who admired the high levels of comfort provided by New Balance shoes. After designing a duo of classy versions of the brand’s 990v6 model in 2023, Bronson moved on to the iconic 1906R sneaker in 2024. Across three striking colorways, he displayed his unique creative vision by compiling eclectic collections of tones that work unexpectedly well together. He also decorated them with his own customized branding effects, adding the word “Baklava” alongside the familiar New Balance logos as a reference to both his Albanian heritage and one of his popular nicknames: Mr. Baklava.

This New Balance 1906R x Action Bronson brings together dynamic layers of leather and mesh for a sporty design that delivers maximum comfort. Blue Shadow coats these two materials, and striking bands of silver accent the leather overlays that create captivating geometric patterns across the upper. The New Balance branding on the sidewalls, which also helps to lock the laces firmly in place, comes in this shimmering tone as well. Bronze mesh with a hint of ocher running through it brings further contrast to the flanks, while a more striking shade of blue suffuses the midsole. A rigid black heel counter supports the back of the foot, and the same color shows up on the protective toe cap. Reflective highlights appear all over the outer as a bright counterpoint to these darker aspects. Boldly displayed on the tongue and insole is a set of New Balance text alongside the word “Baklava”, thus ensuring that both creative parties behind this stylish Medusa Azul colorway are honored through its memorable esthetic.
