One of their shoe &#8220;2002R,&#8221; which made its long-awaited comeback in 2020, is made in Asia and features a renewed &#8220;ML860 v2&#8221; sole, and the new elegant style is maintaining the highest level of comfort. The affordable price point has also made them a fashion item for a wider range of generations.<\/p>\n<p>This time, Chicago-based designer &#8220;Joe Freshgoods&#8221; has created the 2002R with &#8220;Conversations Amongst Us&#8221; campaign, which focuses on black culture and delves deeply into the importance of communication and community. Designed in collaboration with &#8220;Black Soles,&#8221; a team of black employees of New Balance, the shoe is primarily white for a clean look. The upper is a combination of soft, high-quality leather, suede, ripstop, and other materials with different textures, resulting in a simple yet meticulous finish. The leather cut lines are brown, and the N logo is yellow or black. The shoe box has also been redesigned with the words &#8220;Conversations Amongst Us&#8221; engraved on it, creating a pair that connects the black community to the next generation through sneakers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"\u201c300&quot;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Update 31 Mar 2023] For those that missed out on the Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 2002R \u201cConversations Amongst Us\u201d last year, New Balance has given you another chance to cop at retail.
