New Balance’s 2002R reintroduces a technical running favorite from 2010, outfitting the original design with modern performance upgrades. Don’t call it retro though. A mesh and suede overlay upper construction is rendered with sleek curves and cutout segments for a futuristic take on a classic look. The performance of a Stability Web equipped and N-ergy shock absorbing outsole, ABZORB midsole and ABZORB SBS heel cushioning offer comfort and performance that can’t be pinned down with a date.
ABZORB midsole absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance
ABZORB heel cushioning delivers additional stability and comfort
Stability Web outsole technology provides added arch support
