New Balance introduces its fresh "Protection Pack" for the iconic NB 2002R, and this time, the pack brings outdoor-inspired upgrades to the table, adding versatility and trail-ready style. This neutral rendition takes a utility-inspired turn with ripstop uppers and toggle lacing systems, typically found on hiking and trail-running shoes. They feature a ripstop mesh base, uncut suede overlays, and a leather tongue panel with exposed foam. Tonal accents adorn the N logos and heel midsole section, whilst the perforated rear suede panel rocks lighter tones, giving it a clean look. The toggle rope lacing system adds a unique touch with white speckles and the cushioned ABZORB SBS midsole and sturdy Stability Web outsole round off this stylish package.
