New Balance introduces the familiar 2002R sneaker model in a Sky Blue colorway palette to join the roster for the Summer 2025 season. The brand unveiled the model with a neutral aesthetic, starting with a sky blue-hued upper made with mesh materials for seamless breathability. It is lined with a linen grey suede overlay to match.
It is taking on an ocean-like understone and the shoe's muted tones make it suitable for most summer looks. It should be launching for the price of $145 USD in the coming months. The overlaying details are done in a cream tone for a minimal contrast and the light 'N' logo on the side of the shoe is outlined with blue.
