Although New Balance’s sneaker-loafer hybrid has drawn strong opinions from both sides, the style continues to be a major hit. With previous colors selling out quickly, it’s no secret that the hybrid shoe continues to draw attention with each release. While the brand has already released a flurry of colorways for the design, it’s gearing up for another major release. This time, New Balance is mixing some of their previous hues for a statement new color combination. While the silhouette and footwear features haven’t changed much, the colorway brings new life to the sneaker. Even though previous color combinations sought to subdue the eclectic design, this new release is bolder and wilder. This New Balance sneaker-loafer is created for the bravest and most adventurous style mavens, proving it’s just getting started. 

New Balance 1906L “Silver Metallic”

The latest New Balance 1906L uses a similar design as the previous iterations. It has open-holed mesh uppers, synthetic overlays, and the 860v2 sole unit. While the colorways have been redesigned, the sneaker-loafer hasn’t lost its technology features. The shoe comes equipped with segmented ABZORB SBS pods at the heel. The 1906L features a combination of silver, black, cream, and grey colors for the latest release, which tie in with some of the hues found in previous releases. Starting April 16, this new sneaker will retail for $160 on the New Balance web store. A mix of retro design with a classic heritage, the sneaker-loafer continues to be one of the most interesting silhouettes in recent seasons. With new colorways and designs, there’s no doubt that the 1906L is here to stay.

Sneaker-loafers continue to be the trend that keeps on giving. With stellar designs from New Balance, Converse, Reebok, and more, this trend shows no intention of slowing down. Following the trend, Axel Arigato is getting ready to bring this eclectic shoe to the next level. While many of these hybrid shoes take elements from sneakers and loafers, Axel Arigato is adding even more silhouettes into the mix. Considered part slip-on, loafer, and sneaker, the newest mule from the Swedish brand is a one-of-a-kind design. Despite taking elements from a slide, the brand has made it perfectly clear that it’s anything but. With a new campaign called “Not A Slide,” the brand teases the fact that this shoe has no clear definition or box it can be checked under.

Seiko Presage 2025

Seiko adds three new watches to the Presage Style60's collection with striking dial colors—green, yellow, and purple. Apart from reimagining the dial in different colors, the brand also revamped the design, merging retro aesthetics with the contemporary style for an elevated look. While this line was unveiled with a 40.5 mm casing, the brand downsized the casing to 39.55 mm in 2024. Like the models rolled out in 2024, the latest additions also feature a 39.5 mm casing, highlighted by bright dial colors.

In terms of design, the brand added a circular groove to the dial to create depth—a small detail that makes the front face look modern. And just above the 6 o’clock, there’s a small white date window that accentuates the beautiful contrast between the upper and lower sections.
