FAQs
What material are these trainers made of?
These trainers feature a combination of leather and other materials, typical for the 2002R series, designed for durability and style.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 2002R series is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort for everyday activities. They are not intended as performance running shoes.
How do I clean the beige and grey suede/leather parts?
For general cleaning, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser for suede areas and a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for leather, always testing on a small area first and allowing to air dry.
What is the difference between the 2002R and other New Balance models?
The 2002R is known for its retro-inspired design combined with advanced cushioning technology, offering a balance of style and comfort that sets it apart from purely performance or archival models.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Consider using a water-repellent spray for added protection.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and consider your usual shoe size. The 'Beige Grey' colourway is available in various UK adult male sizes.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the insoles are correctly positioned. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for footwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully and allow it to absorb before wearing.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones for better grip.
