FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The 2002R is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer based on running technology, so it is best suited for daily wear rather than intense athletic training.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The New Balance 2002R offers a standard width fit. If you have previously worn New Balance lifestyle shoes, you will likely find the same size is appropriate.
Can I put these shoes in the dryer?
No, you should never put your sneakers in the dryer as the heat can ruin the materials and the adhesives.
What is the primary material used?
The shoe features a combination of high-quality suede overlays and a breathable mesh base.
How do I protect the suede from rain?
We recommend using a reputable water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first use.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the insoles are generally removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede sections
Use a dry suede brush to gently lift dirt; avoid using water directly on suede.
Creasing in the toe box area
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the shoe maintain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Stains on the mesh material
Gently dab with a clean cloth and a mild soap solution, then air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The New Balance 2002R comes ready to wear straight out of the box with a standard width fit. To maintain the quality of the suede and mesh materials, store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the suede. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the mesh and a specialized suede eraser or brush for the overlay panels. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
