As part of the renowned New Balance 2002R 'Protection Pack' releases of 2023, the New Balance 2002R 'Sea Salt' makes an astonishing addition to the collection. Dressed in premium suede leather, the 'Sea Salt' upper is smoothly accessorised with white overlays around the front foot. The sneaker features the signature spiky overlays, specific for the 'Protection Pack'. The white 'N' logo on the model's lateral is paired with the 2002R inscription on the collar. The midsole is equipped with the N-Ergy technology while the beige hues used in its build keep the clean look of the shoe.

Among the neutral colours featured in the 2002R Protection Pack, look at the 'Black Grey', 'Phantom' and 'Rain Cloud' colorways.
