Borrowing design cues from runners of the past, the New Balance 2002R serves up a lifestyle-ready look with neutral brown hues coating the uppers. The usual formula of mesh and suede is deployed up top to keep things premium whilst encouraging air flow, and 'N' logos on the sidewalls nod to heritage via the sidewalls. ABZORB and ACTEVA LITE cushioning adds a bouncy step, with rubber underfoot to optimise traction too. M2002REF, Leather & Textile Upper/Synthetic Sole.
