The forward-thinking style of the 2002R is rooted in performance running. Inspired by the MR2002, a high-end running model originally released in 2010, the 2002R offers a ready-to-wear take on sleek, technical design. A classic, mesh upper construction is paired with cutout suede overlays, adding a rich layer of detail, while a diamond patterned ABZORB midsole and segmented ABZORB SBS pods at the heel pair an ultra-soft, cushioned feeling with a visually distinctive look. | View the curated selection of established brands, emerging designers, sportswear & goods.

Cool shoe. It's comfortable, fits true to size (11.5), and is relatively light weight. My only gripe is the color. I know it's difficult to dye leather a consistent color, but I would describe my pair closer to Navy Blue than "deep ocean grey/slate".

At first I was unsure of the look, but got them after seeing them in someone else, online pics don’t do them justice. Sizing runs small for reference im a size 9 men but went down to 8.5 :)

Overall, love the materials and color of the shoe. The fitment is perfect along with the comfort, i can wear them all day walking around and my feet wont hurt. My only complaint with the shoe is that the pair I received had some loose threads.

2002r's are so comfortable and I couldn't believe Shoe Palace had these in my size! Fast shipping, great experience overall.
The perfect shoe. Exactly what I was looking for. So elegant for a sneaker too! Also Super versatile, goes with everything I wear. I love them!!
NB have been the best engineered, most foot-friendly brand of athletic shoes out there for decades. This model carries that heritage forward in style.
These are great New Balance shoes, they are comfortable, lightweight and looks greatHighly recommended to anyone thinking twice about them, you will not get disappointedWill definitely buy a different color soon.
Ordered up like the comments recommended. But the shoe was way too wide. Also received what seems to be the floor sample. Not even a new balance box. It has scribbled shoe size and shoe name. Unprofessional for the price.
My fiancé loves his new shoes and the color is really nice and sophisticated yet cool. He gets compliments from other guys frequently on these shoes. He says they are comfy and look mature yet stylish. A go to for men with a sense of style and comfort too.
Super comfortable. Amazing build. Not super light like the 1080 runners etc but not super heavy. Comfortable for lots of standing & walking. Great color. Looks killer with denims or khakis
