Description

The New Balance 2002R Eclipse Raincloud updates the 2002R with a stormy colorway that mimics the sky s color right before it rains or the darkness of an eclipse.Featuring padding in the collar and tongue, this sneaker draws inspiration from the 2000s technical running shoes. However, its grayscale colorway and lack of metallic overlays give the sneaker a contemporary look. The base is crafted from tightly woven mesh in Eclipse, while the layered, pig-suede overlays come in Rain Cloud, Graphite, and light gray. Perforations along the leather side panels allow the foot to breathe, while the ACTEVA LITE foam and N-ergy technology absorb shock and provide cushioning. In addition, Stability Web technology stabilizes the foot and ankle.Our Newsole experts like the shiny “N” logo on the side panel, which adds a metallic detail to the otherwise matte sneaker. The New Balance 2002R Eclipse Raincloud was released on July 13, 2023, and sold for $140.
