FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The New Balance 2002R generally fits true to size, though personal preference for toe room may dictate sizing up or down by half a size.

Can I use these for running?

While these feature performance cushioning, they are classified as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for walking and casual daily use rather than high-impact athletic running.

How do I protect the suede?

We recommend applying a high-quality, non-silicone water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear.

What is the NERGY technology?

NERGY is a high-performance cushioning system used by New Balance to provide excellent shock absorption and comfort.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No, you should never place your trainers in a dryer. High heat can warp the sole and degrade the adhesives, leading to separation.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The 2002R silhouette offers a standard width that accommodates many foot shapes, but individuals with very wide feet may find a half-size increase helpful.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or flat

Use a suede-specific brush to gently lift the nap back into its original texture.

Surface dirt accumulation

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to sweep away loose dirt before it settles into the mesh.

Midsole scuffs

A damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild detergent can be used to wipe the rubber midsole components.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of underfoot comfort via NERGY technology
  • Distinguishable, fashionable deconstructed design
  • Breathable construction suitable for all-day use
  • Excellent traction on standard pavement and urban environments

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and staining
  • Requires professional cleaning products for maintenance
  • Lighter colorways may show dirt more easily than dark models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers feature delicate suede overlays, they require specific attention. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or muddy conditions to prevent permanent staining of the suede fibers. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully—never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this will damage the adhesive and material texture. To maintain the shoe's shape when not in use, consider using shoe trees.
