FAQs
Are the New Balance 2002R trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size for most adult foot shapes.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, submerging these leather trainers in water or using a washing machine can damage the material and structural integrity.
What should I do if the leather gets wet?
Pat the shoes dry with a clean cloth and let them air dry naturally away from heat sources like radiators.
Are these suitable for running?
While they provide good support, they are classified as lifestyle trainers rather than high-performance running shoes.
Does the leather require conditioning?
Occasional use of a high-quality leather conditioner can help maintain the suppleness of the material.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface has minor scuffs
Gently buff the area with a dry, soft cloth or a specialized leather eraser to restore the finish.
Foot discomfort during the first wear
Loosen the laces to allow for more volume and ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers last, consider these tips:
- Break-in Period: Wear the shoes for shorter durations at first to allow the leather to naturally contour to your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For stubborn marks on the leather, use a professional leather cleaner designed for footwear.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or crack over time.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-safe water-repellent spray can help protect the surface from light rain or spills.
