New Balance Unleashes the Wild Side with the 2002R “Cheetah”
New Balance is taking a walk on the wild side with their latest release, the 2002R “Cheetah.” This exclusive colorway, available only at French retailer Courir, brings a fierce and untamed edge to the brand’s lineup.
The “Cheetah” edition fully embraces a safari-inspired aesthetic, featuring bold black and tan cheetah-print overlays that add a dynamic twist to the classic silhouette. But instead of using faux fur, New Balance opts for luxurious suede, giving the sneaker a refined and textured look.
To balance out the bold pattern, the underlays combine mesh, suede, and leather in warm tan hues, enhancing the sneaker’s natural and earthy appeal. And for a touch of unexpected vibrancy, subtle yet impactful pops of red can be found on the toe box, midsole, and heel branding, completing the design.
The New Balance 2002R “Cheetah” will be released on February 6th with a retail price of $160 USD. Don’t miss your chance to add this untamed beauty to your sneaker collection – head to Courir to get your hands on a pair.
