The model&#8217;s a dichotomy\u2014fusing its iconic retro look with modern tech in a marriage of comfort and style. The &#8220;Steel Blue&#8221; colorway is a nod to the palette popularized by Kith&#8217;s Ronnie Fieg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pair showcases New Balance&#8217;s craftsmanship using premium materials and a classic color shceme that echos the brand&#8217;s celebrated releases (think: Grey Day).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mud guard, midfoot, heel, and vamp are clothed with dark grey suede overlays, creating a rich texture that adds depth. A Steel Blue mesh base complements the suede, offering a subtle yet striking pop of color. This blue is repeated on the laces and inner N logo lining, lending a cohesive look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A cream leather heel tab adds an elegant contrast to the overall darker tones of the shoe, while a metallic silver NB-branded heel tab adds a sprig of luxury into the mix. The cream foam midsole ensures comfort, while a black rubber outsole ensures durability and traction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New Balance 2002R &#8220;Steel Blue&#8221; arrives in 2024 at New Balance stores and select retailers, online and in-store. Available in men&#8217;s sizes, each pair is priced at US$150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><em>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soleretriever.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Sole Retriever<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other news, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2024\/03\/04\/junya-watanabe-hoka-ora-primo-release-date-price\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Junya Watanabe x HOKA Ora Primo<\/a>.
