FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The New Balance 2002R trainers are designed for everyday comfort and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes with advanced motion control and cushioning would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the white and grey suede/mesh upper?
Use a soft brush for dry dirt. For stains, gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry. A suede protector spray is recommended for maintenance.
What does 'Stability Web' do?
The Stability Web is an arch support feature in the outsole that provides torsional rigidity, helping to prevent the shoe from twisting unnecessarily and offering better arch support.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. The suede material can be susceptible to water damage. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to use a protective spray.
What is the main difference between the original 2002 and the 2002R?
The 2002R is a modern reinterpretation of the original 2010 model, featuring updated performance technology like ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning for enhanced comfort and support, while retaining the original design's aesthetic.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 2002R trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for anyone regardless of gender.
How should I store my 2002R trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and damage.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If still tight, try loosening the laces and wearing them for short periods to break them in. Consider alternative lacing techniques.
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions carefully. Protect with a suede spray.
Reduced cushioning over time
The ABZORB and N-ergy technologies are designed for durability, but cushioning may lessen with extensive use. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help prolong performance.
Laces wear out
Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length and material. Ensure the new laces are tied securely but not overly tight.
