FAQs
Are the New Balance 2002R suitable for running?
The 2002R is designed with running shoe aesthetics and features cushioning for comfort, but it is primarily intended for casual wear and lifestyle use, not for high-performance athletic running.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt. For stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.
What does Abzorb technology do?
Abzorb is New Balance's proprietary technology that provides excellent shock absorption, helping to cushion impacts and provide a comfortable feel underfoot.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials, especially the suede.
What colors are available for the New Balance 2002R?
The 2002R is available in several colorways, including Yellow, Sea moss, and Raincloud, often with complementary grey accents.
Are these trainers unisex?
While designed for men, the style and comfort make them suitable for anyone. However, it's important to check the sizing guide carefully as men's sizing may differ from women's.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable mesh and durable suede overlays.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider trying a half-size up or down if initial fit is too tight or loose.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Reduced cushioning over time
While Abzorb is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure you are not exceeding recommended wear for casual trainers.
Laces come undone frequently
Try double-knotting the laces or replacing them with a different type of lace that offers better grip.
