New Balance introduced the ‘Protection Pack’ (Refined Future) in August 2021, starting with the release of the ‘Rain Cloud’ 2002R iteration. Following the initial drop’s favorable reception, the pack has expanded over the years, introducing new colorways to the collection. Now, a fresh addition to the ‘Protection Pack’ is on the horizon, boasting the use of durable ripstop material.
New Balance is gearing up for the release of the highly anticipated New Balance 2002R models, which will be available in a variety of colorways including Dark Moss, Eclipse, High Desert, and Sandstone. These sneakers are thoughtfully crafted using a combination of premium suede and ripstop nylon materials. Each pair in this collection is equipped with a convenient bungee lacing system for easy wear. To ensure optimal comfort, the shoes feature an ABZORB midsole, known for its excellent cushioning, as well as an N-ergy outsole, which provides superior responsiveness and support.
Below, you can check out more photos of the New Balance 2002R ‘Protection Pack’ for a closer look. A release will take place later this year at select retailers and NewBalance.com. The retail price is $160. Once we have more information, we will make sure to update you.
