The New Balance 2002R gets a seasonal makeover with “Olive” tones and GORE-TEX material for durability. Meanwhile, the New Balance 550 returns in a “Moonbeam” colorway, offering a vintage-inspired look with speckled midsoles and gum outsoles, exclusively for women this holiday season.
New Balance 2002R Gets Fall-Ready with Durable GORE-TEX and 'Olive' Colorway for 2024 Season
At this point, it’s clear that the New Balance 2002R has stepped back from its status as a “hype” model. Its counterpart, the New Balance 1906R, has taken up that mantle. However, the 2002R’s appeal hasn’t diminished in everyday wearability and comfort, making it one of the best lifestyle options. With the changing seasons, though, its usual mesh runner construction may no longer be suitable, and New Balance’s Boston designers have responded just in time.
Following hints from an all-black version, the 2002R now swaps out its traditional suede and mesh build for a durable nubuck and GORE-TEX combination, making it a year-round option. The new model also adopts a nature-inspired color palette, featuring earthy tones of army green and black and select off-white touches on the sole. This fresh color-blocking approach gives the shoe’s panels a shadowed appearance, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the seasonal update.
This version of the New Balance 2002R is set for release as part of New Balance’s Fall/Winter 2024 lineup. Due to the upgraded materials, it is expected to carry a premium price tag of $180.
New Balance 550 Returns in Women’s Exclusive 'Moonbeam' Edition, Blending Vintage and Modern Styles
After a quiet few months, the New Balance 550 is making a solid comeback. A slew of new colorways unveiled recently signals the brand’s intent to reignite interest in the lifestyle silhouette for the Fall/Winter season. Among the releases is a women’s exclusive “Moonbeam” edition, a design that channels the 550’s most iconic years.
Jet black trim gives the shoe a high-contrast look, complemented by grey mesh and nubuck around the heel. Paired with off-white perforated leather, the shoe has a “Panda”-like appearance, but the speckled midsole and gum outsole push the aesthetic into a distinctly vintage realm. These design cues, pivotal to the 550’s popularity, signal a return to form for the model. It’s a case of “playing the hits,” but with a timeless look like this, it’s easy to understand why New Balance has returned to these tried-and-true design elements.
The New Balance 550 “Moonbeam” is set to hit retail shelves and NewBalance.com this holiday season. It is exclusively for women and has a confirmed MSRP of $110.
