FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
These New Balance 2002R trainers feature a primary upper made of leather, with a beige and grey colour scheme.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While offering good comfort and support for walking and casual wear, these trainers are best suited for lifestyle and light activities, not high-performance running.
How do I clean the leather on these shoes?
Use a soft, dry cloth for daily dusting. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by drying. Periodically apply a leather conditioner.
What does the '2002R' designation refer to?
The '2002R' refers to a specific model series within the New Balance line, known for its retro-inspired design and comfort features.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While leather offers some protection, it is not fully waterproof. It is recommended to use a water-repellent spray and avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to protect the material.
What sizes are available?
This specific product is listed in UK adult foot size 10.5. Other sizes within the 2002R range may be available from different listings or retailers.
What is the closure type for these trainers?
The closure type is lacing, allowing for an adjustable and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. If persistent, consider trying a different size as foot shapes vary. Consult the New Balance size guide for accurate measurements.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner according to product instructions. This will help restore moisture and flexibility.
Scuffs or marks on leather
For minor scuffs, try a leather cleaner or a specialized eraser. For deeper marks, professional cleaning might be necessary.
Soles feel slippery
Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. For new shoes, a light scuff on a rough surface can sometimes improve grip.
