Borrowing design cues from runners of the past, the New Balance 2002R serves up a lifestyle-ready look with neutral brown hues coating the uppers. The usual formula of mesh and suede is deployed up top to keep things premium whilst encouraging air flow, and 'N' logos on the sidewalls nod to heritage via the sidewalls. ABZORB and ACTEVA LITE cushioning adds a bouncy step, with rubber underfoot to optimise traction too. M2002REF, Leather & Textile Upper/Synthetic Sole.

I bought this 1 month ago but the side fabric has already torn from the inside due to my little finger always being in contact. I don´t know how much time it will last until it tear completely. It runs a little bit small so my fingers are all tight and together and this causes friction in the fabric. I would recommend going a size up so this doesn´t happen. But overall it is a nice shoe.

So I bought these shoes because I needed new shoes for work. I sit outside or Sonic drive-thrus asking for change. I had Yeezys but people kept getting mad at me for wearing them at work. These new balances are great! Everyone feels so much sorry for me now! I make so much more money while wearing them!When I went to family court the judge saw my shoes and he said I was unfit for a parent. So my ex got full custody of the kids. It's ok, I didn't like Aiden that much, he smells like cabbage and is a little slow (he'd be faster if he had these New Balances). Anyways, Thanks New Balance. You've sold two problems with one pair of shoes.

Shoes look great. The midsole is very supportive and comfortable. True distressed look on this Protection Pack is so amazing and the quality/build on these shoes is probably the best I've see on a pair of New Balances. Good quality long-haired suede and leather on the upper. This color way is also just a great mix of colors and works well with so many neutral tones. Great job New Balance. They do run just a bit big, but it don't think it warrants going down a half size. It's just the right amount of roominess at the end.

I work standing up most of my day so having comfy shoes is a must. I have wide feet and I was afraid to get these since usually I have to buy half a size bigger because most running shoes tend to be narrow, well, not these.I also like the support a lot, not too soft, not too hard, so I get the necessary support needed to keep active.I am planning to buy more colorways in the future and try more similar shoes, well done NB!
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!

The shoe is extremely trendy, and is versatile, making it easy to pair with all articles of clothing! I love styling the new balances with different items making me feel confident whilst being comfortable. I struggled to find the right shoe that worked for all activities, but I find myself wearing these with absolutely everything! They fit nicely, and the sizing isn’t too off either! It amplifies all looks too!
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.
I've grudgingly accepted that I'm a wide-footed dude, and that just means that some shoe models are never going to fit me comfortably - shout out to Nike Air Max 90s, among other models.So that's why the New Balance 2002R is such a refreshing discovery for me - comfort, style, and no weird pinchy feeling in the toebox. I just wore these on a weekend trip to Nashville, including ample walking around the city, and felt absolutely at ease the entire time. I got these in the Incense colorway, which has a fun mix of tan, brown, turquoise and purple hits.Strongly recommended for fellow Wide-Foot Gang members, but if you've got a narrow foot you might want to size down.
