Retro Sprite Colors Animate the New Balance 2002R 'Grey Matter'

The New Balance 2002R is no longer the brand's marquee offering, but it continues to appear in compelling styles that round out the company's springtime offerings.

Having recently surfaced in a 'Linen/Green Apple/Sizzle' ensemble, the retro runner has just landed in a 'Grey Matter' makeover that also features vibrant 'Green Apple' and 'Limelight' accents. A hit of dark blue also claims real estate across the New Balance 860v2-reminiscent design, which works in-tandem with the green hues to create a Sprite-friendly retro look. The technical sole unit underfoot also indulges in the spring-ready color scheme, proving the NB 2002R's versatility.

Firm details regarding a release via NewBalance.com haven't surfaced as of this writing, but independent retailers like Sneaker Town currently have the 'Grey Matter' style on sale for $150. Continue ahead to check out campaign photography of the pair shot by the Miami and Brooklyn-based shop.
