It’s been a few weeks since New Balance released some fresh colourways of its beloved 2002R model—certainly the ‘Protection Pack’ and the ‘Core Pack.’
The New Balance 2002 model originally arrived in 2010 as the successor to the New Balance 2001 under the ‘Made in USA’ branch.
The 2002—now with an R suffix—under NB’s lifestyle category—arrives with few updates that have been made; notably, the 860v2’s midsole, the original model’s exposed forefoot N-Ergy has now been either swapped out or encased in ABZORB foam. The upper has remained largely unchanged, with luxurious nubuck and leather overlays atop a supple durable mesh.
This is a perfect sneaker to add to your rotation this season.
