FAQs
Are the New Balance 2002R shoes true to size?
Yes, the 2002R series generally fits true to standard UK sizing. If you prefer a looser fit or wear thick socks, you may consider going up half a size.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can damage the leather, adhesives, and cushioning structure. Always clean by hand.
Are these shoes suitable for gym workouts?
They are ideal for light gym activities and casual wear, but they are not specialized performance shoes for heavy weightlifting or endurance running.
How do I protect the green colour?
Using a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather can help protect against environmental elements.
What material is the upper made of?
The New Balance 2002R features high-quality leather, which provides a durable and premium feel.
Troubleshooting
Creasing in the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to maintain their shape and minimize deep creases.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a dry, soft brush to gently buff away dirt before it settles into the leather grain.
Slippery outsoles on wet floors
While durable, the outsoles can be slick on polished wet surfaces; exercise caution in rainy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 2002R trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Initial Setup: Ensure you have selected the correct UK size, as the leather structure offers minimal stretch over time.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For tougher stains on leather, use a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the green hue over time.
- Moisture Control: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from heat sources like radiators, which can crack the leather.
