FAQs
What type of closure do these trainers have?
These trainers feature a traditional lacing closure for an adjustable and secure fit.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 2002R trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. While suitable for walking and light gym activities, they are not optimized for high-impact running.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush or cloth for dry dirt. For stains, a damp cloth with mild soap is recommended. Always air dry and consider a leather protectant spray.
What does the '2002R' series signify?
The 2002R series represents a revival of a classic running shoe silhouette, updated with modern cushioning and materials for contemporary comfort and style.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. A leather protectant spray can improve water resistance, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What is the main color of these trainers?
The main color is beige, with secondary grey accents.
Is this product available in other sizes?
Yes, the New Balance 2002R series is available in various adult male UK sizes. Please check the product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Tingling or discomfort in feet
Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Check if the size is appropriate for your foot.
Leather creasing excessively
Some creasing is normal with leather. Ensure proper fit to minimize stress points. Use shoe trees for storage to help maintain shape.
Slight color transfer onto socks
This can sometimes occur with new footwear, especially darker colors. It should reduce with wear. Consider wearing darker socks initially.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider them less suitable for those conditions.
