This New Balance 2002R Leans Into The “Dad” Shoe Fad

This New Balance 2002R Leans Into The “Dad” Shoe Fad

New Balance may not have begun the unshakeable “dad” shoe trend, but it’s delivered numerous looks in the style. For its latest proposition, the Boston-based brand has outfitted its modernized New Balance 2002R with an “Atlas/Lemon Haze” colorway reminiscent of the 624’s signature look.

The mixed-materials upper boasts a predominantly white palette, with leather underlays across the forefoot and profiles donning a seemingly aged aesthetic. Detailing around the profile “N” logos, collar and throughout the outsole proffer stark navy contrast, which creates a combination resembling the ever meme-able New Balance 624. ABZORB tooling visible at the midsole further indulges in an off-white makeup in-line with the manually-“aged” sneakers that’ve taken over certain corners of social media.

Enjoy images of the 2002R here below, and head over to NewBalance.com right now to secure your pair for $140 USD.
