New Balance and size? Unveil Exclusive 'Protection Pack' Trio
New Balance has teamed up with UK retailer size? to reintroduce the acclaimed 2002R 'Protection Pack.

New Balance has teamed up with UK retailer size? to reintroduce the acclaimed 2002R 'Protection Pack.' This exclusive collaboration features three distinct colorways, marking a significant addition to the 'Refined Future' series. The concept is centred around designer Yue Wu’s observation that despite years of wear and tear, New Balance silhouettes always hold their original form.
Since its launch, the ideals of the ‘Protection Pack’ stem from a deconstruction of famed silhouettes by adding raw-edged, distressed textures and considered detailing. This first edition of the pack is set to a muted palette of earthy tones, drawing inspiration from core minerals and natural metals. Breathable mesh is layered with a mix of premium suedes, adding dimension and texture to the design, while touches of leather on the heel tab and exposed foam tongue conjure a luxurious finish. Cloud-like cushioning and all-day arch support come from the ABZORB midsole and N-ergy outsole that anchor the silhouette.
The size? x New Balance 2002R 'Protection Pack' is set to release exclusively through size? on Thursday, March 13, 2025, with a retail price of approximately $178.
The draw for the New Balance Refined Future 2002 ‘Protection Pack’ – size? exclusive is open now until March 12, 2025.
