The New Balance 2002R Phantom is taken from the Protection Pack, composed of three neutral colorways of the lifestyle runner originally released in 2010. This pair showcases a monochromatic dark grey finish throughout the upper, featuring a breathable mesh base with raw-edged suede overlays that enhance the shoes deconstructed look. A tonal N logo on the quarter panel is joined by a discreet 2002r callout on the lateral side. A distressed ABZORB midsole, borrowed from the 860v2, delivers lightweight cushioning and a smooth ride.
