These are easily one of the most beautiful pair of shoes I own. I enjoy looking at them and they look great on feet. Super comfortable too. I can wear these in the office, on a quick mission downtown, at a nice dinner, or on the trails. Although I wouldn't go too hard on the trail in these.I'm curious about the outsole life and whether or not these can be re-soled. I'd imagine the tread on the outsole of these to go out after 50-75 miles, at which point the shoe won't look as nice. I'll definitely keep track.Ultimately, these are comfortable, gorgeous sneakers that can perform on any and all terrains. 10/10 all across the board.

This shoe is super comfortable. It has good cushioning and support. The fit is true to size. Shoe is well made with quality materials. It is also a very nice looking shoe. I've gotten a lot of compliments when wearing it. I would recommend this shoe and would definitely buy it in more colorways.

I've always worn a 10.5 in all New Balance sneakers. This shoe is very narrow and seems to run small. If you have wide feet I would recommend going up a half size.The color is a very light shade of blue, in some lights it appears gray. More often than not it is light blue.

I wear 2002's for walking and casual wear, no running at my age. These are really nice looking shoes, they are comfortable, and they are reasonably priced. Fit to size even for my size 14 feet. These shoes have been made in a variety of styles and colors making them very desirable choices for anyone looking for the right pair of lifestyle shoes. Overall, I am very pleased with the 2002's that I have purchased.
I'm admittedly late to the New Balance party, lol! Although I had a pair in the early 2000s, I haven't had a pair since. I knew NB has been on fire as of recent times, so I decided to try a pair. What I remember from back in the day was that they're SUPER comfy, and these 2002Rs definitely are! And they're great looking as well! I actually took them on vacation recently, and they definitely passed the test! I logged tons of miles in them while playing tourist, and my feet felt pretty great! These are very cushioned, and also have great support! I have the black/grey/white pair, and I swapped the black laces for grey ones. They really pop, and I got tons of compliments on them! All in all, these shoes are amazing, and I definitely recommend them! I actually just ... MoreI'm admittedly late to the New Balance party, lol!

This shoe is so subtle, yet so stylish and wearable. The fit and comfort are wonderful. I have a wide foot so I half sized up and it fits perfectly. Super happy with this Christmas gift. I love the 2002rs and their color ways. This versatile yet subtle color way definitely did not disappoint.
I love my sneakers. The color is beautiful. They're very comfortable. When I received them they looked like they had been worn. I had to exchange them anyway because I got them a little too big. But for the price I paid they should never come looking worn or used. Besides that they're my new favorite sneakers.
First off I received the lilac blue let me say this shoe is more blue than purple and im okay with it. It sports the now infamous protection pvck styling with the exaposed foam I might be getting ahead of my self when I claim that this blue purple hue might just be the next rain pvck down the road. being a new balance shoe you already know you will be comfortable and it fits tts. If you have wide feed go up a half size if ur barley squeezing into ur regular sz 13 go up half a size. When wearing this shoe do not attempt to camouflage the shoe and where blue jeans you can do better and if you do these shoes will definitely make any outfit pop.
Definitely a fan of NB I love the style and design of the sneakers . I must say I'm disappointed in the fit of the sneakers. NB normally fit me slightly loose not too loose but I have enough room. With the navy blue I just purchased the width part is a bit snugged. So that's where the disappointment comes.
I use them for work. So, everyday wear. The shoe has a modern/retro look. Which is cool, they're lite, and somewhat comfortable. The only thing I don't like about them is that they're not a little more comfortable. Overall I like the shoe. And I plan on buying in different colors.
