Developed in collaboration with the LA-based footwear designer, the Salehe Bembury x New Balance 2002R Water Be The Guide takes inspiration from the universal solvent. The upper is constructed from open pink mesh with shaggy suede overlays in a vibrant aqua hue. Contrasting green hits appear on the heel and shearling N logo, while rustic brown leather is utilized on the tongue and collar. Soft cushioning is provided by a speckled NERGY foam midsole with a Stability Web TPU shank for improved stability.
