FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they belong to the 2002R running series, they are positioned as lifestyle trainers. They are best suited for walking and casual wear rather than high-impact athletic running.

How do I protect the suede?

Apply a high-quality suede-safe water and stain repellent spray, and avoid wearing the trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions.

What is the sizing like for the BAPE x New Balance 2002R?

These trainers generally follow standard New Balance sizing. If you have worn other 2002R models, you should find the same size is appropriate.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No. Machine washing will damage the suede material and could compromise the structure and the adhesive used for the shark tooth detailing.

What does the 'Apes Together Strong' series refer to?

This is the specific collection title for this collaboration between BAPE and New Balance, highlighting the shared design identity of both brands.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or loose debris in the suede nap

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift and remove particles without pressing them into the material.

Minor scuff marks on suede

Use a suede eraser to gently buff the affected area in a circular motion until the mark fades.

Reflective N logo appears dull

Wipe the logo gently with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to remove oily residue or dust buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your BAPE x New Balance 2002R trainers last, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Avoid Moisture: Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Use a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first wear.
  2. Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each wear. For deeper cleans, utilize a specialized suede cleaner and avoid submerging the shoe in water.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey tones and camo print over time.
  4. Styling: These shoes feature a versatile grey palette, making them highly compatible with neutral-colored denim, joggers, or technical streetwear gear.
