I'm really loving this shoe!
I'm really loving this shoe!
The comfort is outstanding—plush enough for all-day wear while still feeling stable and supportive. The fit is true to size with a secure, foot-hugging upper that really locks your foot in without feeling restrictive.
For me, the 1906R is easily a top-five sneaker of all time—the perfect combination of comfort, fit, versatility, and timeless style. It’s one of those shoes that makes you want to buy multiple colorways because it simply gets everything right.

This was the worst purchase I ever made with Nordstrom’s rack and I filed a complaint, even though it’s marked as a final sale when I received the item I got them home open the package they came in a clear plastic bag. There were no tags and they had a dirty soul like they had been previously owned and worn. ! Nowhere in this description, does it say that the item was previously owned if I had known I would have not purchased them! Couldn’t load the photos to show
