New Balance U2002DXA

The New Balance 2002R Protection Pack White refines the deconstructed aesthetic that made the Protection Pack a modern cult favorite. Wrapped in layered white panels with subtle silver metallic accents, the upper carries that signature raw edge look through exposed foam and jagged overlays. The 2002R base keeps the silhouette grounded in early 2000s running heritage while pushing it into contemporary territory. The Protection Pack series changed how people viewed archival New Balance models, turning understated runners into statement pieces through texture alone. In an all-white execution, the distressed detailing feels even more pronounced, giving depth without relying on bold color blocking. For fans who appreciate subtle experimentation, this pair delivers complexity in the cleanest possible palette. The New Balance 2002R Protection Pack White was released on November 3, 2025, with a retail price of $170.
