Joe Freshgoods x 2002R 'Conversations Amongst Us' M2002RJ1

Inspired by the importance of communication and community, the Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 2002R ‘Conversations Amongst Us’ is designed in collaboration with an employee-led New Balance community dubbed Black Soles, whose goal is to increase representation in the footwear industry. The lifestyle runner carries a cream-colored upper built with a combination of ripstop, suede, leather, and translucent TPU. A silver ‘N’ logo adorns the quarter panel, while ‘Conversations Amongst Us’ is debossed across the heel of the left and right shoe. Lightweight cushioning comes courtesy of an ABZORB midsole, supported underfoot by an amber translucent rubber outsole.
