Mixed-material upper featuring pigskin and textile materials. GORE-TEX waterproof fabric protects from wind, rain, and water. Soft and breathable fabric lining. ABZORB midsole for cushioning and compression resistance. Foam-padded insole. ABZORB SBS heel cushioning for added stability and comfort. N-ergy outsole for superior shock absorption. Stability web outsole technology for added arch support. Reflective N logo. A remastered version of the 2002, the 2002R burst onto the scene in 2020 in celebration of the OG silhouette’s tenth anniversary. This isn’t a retro, though, per New Balance’s insistence — instead, the 2002R is outfitted with modern performance upgrades that welcome it to a new era. The mixed-material upper of the original 2002 is still in play, paired with the sole unit of the 860v2. Sleek curves and strategically placed cutouts give the 2002R a more futuristic look, while it retains classic New Balance details. A lifestyle shoe, the 2002R is equipped with the brand’s ABZORB cushioning in the midsole and N-ergy shock absorbing outsole for comfort amid all-day wear. It may not be a running-specific shoe like the OG 2002, but the 2002R can more than handle rigorous use on a daily basis, especially thanks to GORE-TEX waterproof fabric that protects from wind, rain, and water.

Shoes are a little large so I would actually size down a full 2 sizes (men to women)They are beautiful but Bandier’s customer service is trash. Had a few issues with this as my first purchase it was not a great experience. Probably won’t shop there again.

I have the old versions of the 680 and this are an excellent addition. Super comfy and light, just like the predecessor. These were an excellent price and so I had to get them!

These are definitely an improvement on the previous edition.Yes they are smaller than you think I'm usually an 8 and I had to get a 9 and half. But apart from that no problems,so far at least. The new laces are grippier and don't slip through your fingers, the soles are springy, very lightweight, also comfy straight out the box.
Amazing quality shoe. Perfect condition and great color - just as pictured. Had been searching for these across multiple sites for months so was pleasantly surprised when they had my size. Plus they came in very quickly. Would 10/10 purchase again from this site
Bought having tried some other New Balance in store. Annoyingly these ones come up smaller but I didn't realise until on first run so can't now return them.Sports direct not helpful throughout - slow delivery and no understanding that a product must be worn to check if fits.Trainers themselves feel good for cheap simple road running. Nothing fancy, just simple trainers.
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.
Super comfortable with plenty of room in the toe box. Ultra fashionable chunky style with lots of cushion and support. Excellent for hours of wear/walking, especially for those with wider feet or feet prone to swelling.
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.
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
