FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The New Balance 2002R series generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer to check the specific width availability.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the structural integrity of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods only.

What is the NERGY technology?

NERGY is New Balance's proprietary midsole cushioning technology designed to absorb impact and return energy for a smoother, more comfortable stride.

Are these suitable for running?

While they feature high-performance cushioning, the 2002R Protection Pack is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer and not for specialized distance running.

How do I maintain the suede texture?

Regularly using a suede brush helps keep the fibers lifted and prevents the material from becoming matted or looking worn.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt marks on the suede

Use a soft-bristle brush to gently work the dirt out in the direction of the nap.

Midsole scuffs

Use a damp microfiber cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently wipe the rubber midsole.

Fitted feeling too snug

Ensure the laces are not over-tightened at the bridge of the foot, allowing the mesh upper to breathe and expand naturally.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of underfoot cushioning for all-day comfort
  • Stylish, modern design with unique layered overlays
  • Reliable traction on multiple surfaces
  • Breathable construction prevents overheating

Cons

  • Suede material is prone to staining and requires specific care
  • Lighter weight materials may show wear faster than full-leather options
  • The distressed aesthetic may not appeal to those preferring pristine white trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your 2002R trainers, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or muddy conditions, as the suede material is sensitive to moisture and debris.

  1. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each wear.
  2. Stain Removal: For deeper cleaning, use a suede-safe eraser or a professional cleaning solution, testing it on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading and the midsole from excessive yellowing.
  4. Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray formulated specifically for suede to guard against environmental damage.
