New Balance doesn’t like to cause too much of a fuss when it comes to colourways. These 2002Rs, then, are no different, with a subtle off-white hue appearing throughout. But it isn’t the colour that’s the main attraction here, it’s the uppers — they’re made using textured suede that’s layered, cut-out and has unfinished edges. The sole is unchanged, though, with ABZORB & N-ERGY working together to provide cushioning and support.
