The New Balance 2002R Concrete Gray is a low-top sneaker from the Boston brand that boasts a Concrete Gray color scheme.

Dressed in gray tones, this shoe’s upper sports a myriad of materials from leather, suede, and mesh. The front part of the shoe has mesh in the toebox area for breathability, which leads into the plush suede and leather overlay and eyestay. The gray heel counter is perforated, and not something you see often. A Cork Brown color with colored flecks is seen on the heel, collar, and tongue. The signature tilted “N” adorns both side panels and is stitched on in white. A padded collar and white midsole round out this footwear.

Our experts think that the ABZORB midsole and ABZORB SBS heel cushioning that provide stability and comfort are what makes this stylish silhouette stand out. The New Balance 2002R Concrete Grey debuted on March 16, 2023.
