New Balance continues to tap into the 2002R for creativity. Following the hits from Salehe Bembury, DTLR, and in-line colorways, the 2002R has more on the way with its “Protection Pack” series.

The inaugural “Protection Pack” took over in fall 2021 with its distressed, layered look. As the rest of 2022 ramps up, the brand has more in the pipeline. The “Protection Pack” is releasing in two upcoming series: “Steel Blue,” “Navy,” “Orange,” and the second set of three that includes pink, purple, and the latest colorway with a worn & aged look.

The latest 2002R is built with mesh, suede, and leather on its deconstructed upper construction. Addiotanlly, the pair features a rugged and worn aesthetic.

A release date for the all-new New Balance 2002R “Protection Pack” colorway has not been announced. However, we expect the pair to retail for $150 on NewBalance.com and select retailers. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
