Don't call it retro though. A mesh and synthetic overlay upper construction is rendered with sleek curves and cutout segments for a futuristic take on a classic look. The performance of a Stability Web equipped and N-ergy shock absorbing outsole, ABZORB midsole and ABZORB SBS heel cushioning offer comfort and performance that can't be pinned down with a date.

The New Balance 2002r hits all the check-boxes. Has a great look, very comfortable, and elevates the rest of your outfit. I would suggest half size up on these. I wear 11.5 in all Nikes and New Balance 9060 but these run just a bit slimmer in my experience. A worthy purchase!

I bought this pair of New Balance shoes from Finish Line as a gift for my teenage son. It was very easy to navigate the website when making my purchase and the turnaround time in receiving the product was incredible. It's important to note that this is the first time I've purchased online from Finish Line, usually shopping at other retailers. Because my shopping experience was so quick and easy, I will definitely come here first to make my next shoe purchase for my son. Thank you!

I work in my shoes and I am standing on my feet and constantly moving around walking. This shoe elevates my walking and gives me a firm strong stance and balance grip that also helps each step you take feel great and stable. It's a great fitting on your feet nicely designed but more importantly comfortable and durable and gives your feet a secure strong foundation to stand on.

I have sever issues with any type of sneaker due to me having flat feet. I ordered these just to try them out and my goodness!!!! Not one of the best but the best sneaker I have ever worn and I didn't even get them in wide width. They are extremely comfortable even after a 12hr shift. Definitely 1,000% would recommend and buy these again.
I have horribly flat feet and have great difficulty getting shoes. The New Balance 1540 is the only athletic shoe I buy. It is lightweight and comfortable and usually gives me a year of usage at 12,000 steps per day. However, the V3 is not as good quality as the previous models. The insole is now very cheap and flimsy. The mesh covering the toe box is very thin and breaks too easily.
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!

Maybe it's just me but remember when back in the day you would get teased for wearing new balances? Well, I do but now not anymore. I have gotten so many compliments on these every time I wear them. I love that new balance is experimenting with some of the newer, fresher, and current sneaker designs. They are extremely comfortable which is shocking with most sneakers that are stylish. I definitely plan to buy another pair in the future. Great shoe.
This is my third pair of these New Balance 515s. They are a great shoe and comfortable for my wider feet, so when they finally wear out I go looking for another pair. The fabric upper breathes, which is important when you live in the southwest where it's usually warm; and grey is a neutral color that looks good with most any color jeans or shorts. Style and comfort!
I use this product for every day use. I love the style and fit although it is a little to big it still fits comfortably around my feet. I have recommended it to my friends and convinced some to even buy the same exact product. I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase and would purchase again!
