FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature a performance-based silhouette, the BAPE x New Balance 2002R is primarily a lifestyle trainer. They are best suited for walking and casual daily use rather than high-intensity exercise.
How should I clean the BAPE ABC camo sections?
Gently spot clean with a soft cloth and a mild detergent solution, taking care not to rub too vigorously to preserve the print quality.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard New Balance sizing. If you are between sizes, consider trying on your regular New Balance size for the best fit.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. The suede and leather construction can be damaged by water and mud. If they get wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources.
What is the primary material used in these trainers?
The upper is constructed from a premium mix of leather and suede, providing a balance of durability and style.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft suede brush to gently lift and remove surface scuff marks.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Ensure the laces are threaded through the eyelets properly; double-knotting or using a secure lacing technique can prevent them from coming undone.
Creasing in the leather toe box
While minor creasing is natural with high-quality leather, using shoe trees when the trainers are not in use can help maintain their shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your BAPE x New Balance 2002R trainers last, avoid exposing them to harsh weather conditions or excessive moisture, as the leather and suede can be sensitive.
Care Instructions:
- Use a soft, dry brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt after each wear.
- For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft-bristled brush, testing a small area first.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
- Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the structural integrity of the leather overlays.
Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard lace-up closure and a true-to-size fit, making them compatible with most foot shapes and standard socks.
