New Balance 2002R "PHANTOM PROTECTION PACK"

New Balance 2002R “Protection Pack – Phantom” – Dark sophistication with a raw edge

The New Balance 2002R “Protection Pack – Phantom” is a dark, refined iteration within the popular Protection Pack series. This edition brings a layered combination of black and anthracite gray tones, resulting in a sneaker with a powerful silhouette and subtle depth — raw, stylish and uncompromising.

The upper is constructed from a mix of breathable mesh and premium suede with raw, ripped edges — the Protection Pack’s trademark. Dark hues range from deep black to carbon grey, creating a tonal look with plenty of texture. Despite the all-black approach, this iteration exudes detail and intricacy.

Thanks to the ABZORB and N-ergy sole construction, the 2002R Phantom not only delivers style, but also excellent comfort and responsive cushioning. The robust sole construction offers stability during every moment of use, whether you are walking, working or playing.
