The New Balance 2002R “Protection Pack” series is taking off this year. Following the inaugural trio from last year, the tearaway & distressed aesthetic on the 2002R has captivated sneakerheads from all over, even those who were hesitant to jump onto the New Balance wave.

Ahead of the second "Protection Pack" installment, the 2002R is releasing in another trifecta of colorways. An all-purple iteration has surfaced. Shades of purple land throughout the shoe’s leather, suede, and mesh construction. Additionally, exposed foam details on the heel and tongue tie the colorway together.
