Description

The New Balance 2002R Gore-Tex JJJJound Charcoal is part of the second collaboration between New Balance and JJJJound. This sneaker adapts the 2002R s signature silhouette to a wintery environment with weatherproof design elements.For example, although the upper is made of leather and mesh, it incorporates a Gore-Tex lining. This lining prevents water from entering the shoe while allowing the foot to breathe and stay warm. The sneaker s colorway of charcoal and black speaks to its utilitarian roots. In terms of branding, the New Balance N in black leather graces the side panel and 2002R branding can be found near the heel. ‘GORE-TEX’ lettering in white ink is also printed above the 2002R branding.Something our Newsole experts like is the front lace-up system with an adjustable toggle. It allows the wearer to adapt the sneaker to his or her needs. The New Balance 2002R Gore-Tex JJJJound Charcoal was released on February 15th, 2024, and retailed at $190.
