In recent years, Junya Watanabe has chosen to showcase new products from his namesake brand and popular footwear brands at fashion shows. These shoes are uniquely fused and spliced, and add the designer’s personal favorite dark style, giving people a unique impression. The JUNYA WATANABE MAN x New Balance 1906 loafers, shown this time at the Men’s Fall/Winter 2024 Paris Fashion Week, continue this concept. The shoe features a classic loafer upper with JUNYA WATANABE MAN logo hanging on the tongue, while the rest is the familiar New Balance 1906 silhouette. This kind of both solemn and harmonious design also makes it invincible in the current popular fusion style.
