Montreal-based brand JJJJound works in collaboration with New Balance once again and this time around, it highlights the iconic 2002r sneaker silhouette. It is adorned in a sleek colorway of grey-blue and features technical accents with the retained details of the original.

This includes the N logo along the lateral side of the shoe, the chunky midsole unit, and mesh paneling throughout for breathability. There is also an addition of the minimal JJJJound accent that is seen on the tongue. The laces that secure the foot in place re done in a crisp white hue along the forefoot. Other details include the ENCAP unit at the base which is rounded out by a black outsole.
