If you're a black-only person when it comes to shoes, the New Balance 1906U Triple Black will be ideal. Its monochrome colorway looks slick, giving it a designer edge that many multi-colored trainers out there can't quite match.

The triple black colorway of this New Balance trainer has a sleek, stealthy look, with only slight variations in its shades. It has a tough ripstop base with leather overlays. The heels have protective TPU cushioning. This cousin of the New Balance 1906R is all about utility. A further plus is that the outsoles are purportedly made from recycled materials.

We're thrilled that New Balance has released such a minimalist trainer. All the high-tech we expect from the brand is there in a lightweight package that's entirely focused on functionality. Its chunky sole has high grip capabilities, and its uppers are breathable. The New Balance 1906U Triple Black was released on 18 July 2024, priced at $155.
