JJJJound has officially revealed their upcoming New Balance 2002R Gore-Tex, revealing two colorways illuminated by camera flash that light up the reflective panels. Given the GTX inclusion, this New Balance 2002R set has the outdoors in mind, complete with reflective hiking laces with toggle locks. An official release with full details will be announced soon.

Jjjjound New Balance 2002r Gore Tex — JJJJound x New Balance 2002R GTX

Fresh off of their first collaborative installment with New Balance in seven months, JJJJound is taking another crack at the NB 2002R this coming winter, this time featuring weather-resistant GORE-TEX tooling.

In stark contrast to the greyscale palette that adorned the Montreal-based design houses’ October installment, the staple runner instead opts for a strict two-toned color blocking steeped in the brand’s understated aesthetic. Bringing to mind the model’s 2021 “Triumph Green” colorway, the upcoming joint effort sees a litany of suede overlays assume a muted shade of evergreen. Wrapping along the mudguard, quarter and a majority of the heel, the base layer’s ballistic mesh tooling then receives a jet-black juxtaposition that stretches further pitch-dark color matches to the profile N logo, inner lining and the sole unit underfoot.

Enjoy a detailed look at the JJJJound x New Balance 2002r GORE-TEX “Green” below via first-look imagery as we await further release details.
