The 'Protection Pack' is characterized by its deconstructed design elements, notably the layered suede with raw, jagged edges, giving the trainers a unique, distressed, and avant-garde aesthetic.
ABZORB is a foam-based cushioning system that provides excellent shock absorption and energy return in the midsole. N-ergy is an outsole cushioning technology that further enhances impact absorption, working together to deliver a comfortable and supportive feel for everyday wear.
While they feature a 'retro runner silhouette' and advanced cushioning, the 2002R Protection Pack trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-performance running. Their construction and suede material are best suited for urban environments and daily comfort.
For best results, use a specialized suede brush for light dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs. For deeper stains, a suede cleaning kit is recommended. Always allow them to air dry and avoid using water directly on the suede.
New Balance sizing can vary slightly between models. Many users find the 2002R series to fit true to size, but for the best fit, it's always recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible.
Due to the suede material, it's advisable to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain or damage suede. Applying a waterproof suede protector can offer some resistance to light moisture.
Gently brush the affected area with a specialized suede brush to lift dirt. For scuffs, use a suede eraser. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Ensure you have the correct size. Adjust lacing for a more customized fit; try different lacing patterns if needed. Wear them for short periods initially to allow for break-in.
This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder inside, and then reinserting the insole.
Remove insoles and allow trainers to air out after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use. Ensure socks are clean and breathable.
