FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 2002R offers great support, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for everyday walking rather than high-performance distance running.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
The 2002R fits true to size, so it is recommended to order your standard UK shoe size for the best fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather material and the structural adhesive; always clean them by hand.
What is the primary material used?
These trainers are crafted with high-quality leather, which provides both a premium look and increased longevity.
Do these provide arch support?
Yes, the 2002R series is known for its supportive footbed, which helps maintain comfort during extended wear.
Is the green color fade-resistant?
While the color is durable, exposure to harsh, direct sunlight for extended periods can cause minor fading over time. Storing them in a dark place when not in use helps preserve the color.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull or loses its shine
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to hydrate the material and restore its natural luster.
Difficulty removing dirt or debris
Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution, wiping gently rather than scrubbing aggressively.
Creasing in the leather toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 2002R trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the 2002R series is designed for a secure, true-to-fit feel.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For leather care, apply a mild leather-specific cleaner and avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or color fading.
- Protection: Consider using a leather-safe water-repellent spray if you plan on wearing these in damp conditions.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to a tension that secures the foot without restricting circulation, ensuring the tongue remains centered.
