New Balance Launches a New Set of the 2002R Sneaker Colorways
New Balance introduces a new set of neutral colorways in the form of the 2002R sneaker model. It is offered in either beige or cream palettes. The beige option is neutral throughout the entire silhouette and is constructed from mesh underlays to provide breathability.
It is paired with nubuck tongues and suede overlays hinted with gray details found at the N logos. The interior lining is also applied in a light gray hue with a colorless midsole foundation. The cream colorway has a lighter palette, especially at the upper portion. It is detailed with gold details at the N logo and some touches of red by the "2002R" branding details that are found at the lateral heel.
