The New Balance 2002R, while no longer centre stage in the brand’s lineup, continues to shine with seasonal releases and the “Grey Matter” colourway is its most refreshing iterations yet.
Part of the spring rotation, it layers soft greys with punchy green tones to deliver a vibrant yet wearable style.
The upper combines premium suede and mesh in a muted Grey Matter foundation, overlaid with Green Apple and Limelight accents.
These vivid hues light up the lace eyelets, “N” logos, midsole and heel tab, creating a crisp, Sprite‑inspired palette. A pop of dark blue elsewhere adds contrast and depth to the green‑washed theme.
This runner homage silhouette repurposes the technical tooling from the NB 860v2 complete with ABZORB midsoles and N‑ergy shock‑absorbing outsole technology offering stability and comfort that mirror its roots in 2000s running.
The supportive sole unit moves through shades of green and grey, ensuring the colourway flows seamlessly from upper to outsole.
Meanwhile, ABZORB cushioning in the midsole and SBS heel, combined with a Stability Web‑reinforced N‑ergy outsole, deliver all‑day comfort and traction qualities.
