New Balance and grey just go together like ham and cheese, it just works. They take what would ordinarily be a bland color and make it exciting by incorporating shapes and materials that draw out the beauty of grey. This 2002 is no different, dressing the upper in swatches of premium suede and leather across a base of breathable mesh. Hits of metallic silver at the heel tab and laterals add beautiful contrast, while a thick beige ABZORB midsole and N-ergy shock-absorbing outsole complete the look.
