Action Bronson is back with his second New Balance 1906R collaboration, following the release of his first of three planned drops. The 1906R “Scorpius” is set to launch via the Baklava Flea Market webstore this Friday, presenting a striking fusion of yellow, green, and orange across its upper, and will be available for $185 USD. This bold design was first teased nearly a year ago and has generated significant anticipation among sneaker enthusiasts.

The 1906R “Scorpius” is emblematic of Bronson’s eclectic style, mirroring his multifaceted career as a rapper, fine artist, wrestler, bodybuilder, actor, and chef. Known for his wild and daring color palettes, Bronson’s latest offering is no exception. The “Scorpius” is big, bold, and boisterous, a perfect metaphor for Bronson himself. It combines elements that typically wouldn’t work together but somehow coexist in perfect harmony, thanks to Bronson’s unique flair.
From the single image we’ve seen, the details are plentiful and intricate. The mesh base is divided between yellow and dark amber, complemented by overlays in bright neon green, soft olive, more amber, and silver detailing. Adding to the visual feast is a blaze orange hit around the collar, steel grey on the midsole, and an outsole featuring light blue and peanut butter brown. The look is completed with two-tone boot style laces, reminiscent of those used in Bronson’s 990v6 collaborations.
Given Bronson’s track record, more updates are surely on the way. Keep an eye out for further details and be ready to grab a pair when they drop on the Baklava Flea Market webstore. This collaboration is set to be another standout in the world of sneaker releases, showcasing Bronson’s unparalleled ability to blend diverse elements into a cohesive, eye-catching design.
