The New Balance 2002R Adrift Moonbeam arrived in shades of brown pig suede. It is crafted from a mix of materials like mesh, suede, and leather. A suede mesh design predominates beneath grey leather eyelets and overlays while the remaining parts utilize a warm brown tint across its suede panels of the quarter overlay, midfoot, mudguard, and perforated heel counter. The inner lining, upper tab, and tongue are all color-coordinated to complete the castle rock look, and the laces and off-white "N" emblems on the trim support the traditional ivory color. The midsole bearing the N-ERGY trademark is covered in the latter neutral shade, with light grey accents and a coordinating brown tread. The New Balance 2002R Adrift Moonbeam was released on the market on 15th October 2022 and retailed at $140.
