New Balance introduces the new New Vintage pack of sneakers that spotlight its own signature 2002r sneaker model for the season. The pack is made up of two new colorway options, which are both minimal and start off with a charcoal grey option made from premium leather and detailed with white mesh as the underlying look.
It can also be seen on the lateral side of the shoe by the N branding detail and the 2002R branding on the collars. Additionally, there are more overlays that can be seen in the toe boxes and collars in navy. The second colorway is brighter with navy overlays but boasts a predominantly pure white color throughout the upper and sits on top of a creamy midsole.
