FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 2002R generally fits true to size for most adults.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing can severely damage the suede and the structural integrity of the overlays. Always clean by hand.

What is the NERGY technology?

NERGY is New Balance’s proprietary cushioning system designed to provide superior shock absorption and energy return.

Are they suitable for running?

While durable and comfortable, the 2002R is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual walking shoe rather than a high-performance running trainer.

How do I maintain the light arctic grey color?

Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray upon purchase to protect the fabric from liquid spills and dust.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede overlays

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt in the direction of the grain; avoid using water or heavy soaps.

Creasing on the toe box

This is a natural occurrence with suede and leather sneakers; use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the shape.

Midsole discoloration

Wipe the slightly yellowed midsole with a damp microfiber cloth and mild soap; ensure it is dried immediately afterward.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent long-term comfort from NERGY technology
  • Stylish, deconstructed look that stands out
  • High-quality materials including genuine suede
  • Stable outsole design for everyday versatility

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining if not treated
  • Textured overlays require specific cleaning brushes
  • Limited stock availability in specific sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your 2002R trainers last, avoid submerging them in water, as this can damage the suede texture. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each use. If the mesh gets dusty, use a dry cloth or a specialized sneaker cleaning kit. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the arctic grey and purple tones. Since these shoes use a standard athletic fit, we recommend selecting your usual New Balance size.
