New Balance continues to work in collaboration with Japanese imprint BEAMS as the duo unveils another iteration of the M2002R silhouette. It readies for the summer season and the silhouette is retained with updates in the form of its tonal palette.
This time around, the shoes are adorned with white and grey for a muted look, and orange is seen on the insoles as a touch of branding. It all sits on top of the classic ABZORB midsole base foundation to provide comfort. More branding is seen on the medial side of the shoe as the classic N logo is applied in white and grey. The laceless slip-on silhouette is now available for pre-order online at BEAMS
