Name: New Balance 2002R “Cheetah”
Colorway: “Tan/Brown-Cream”
SKU: U2002RCP
MSRP: $160 USD
Release Date: February 6
Where to Buy: Courir

New Balance brings a bold, untamed edge to its lineup with the release of the 2002R “Cheetah,” an exclusive colorway for French retailer, Courir.

This edition fully embraces a safari-inspired aesthetic, featuring striking black and tan cheetah-print overlays that add a fierce and dynamic twist. Instead of faux fur, New Balance opts for suede, delivering a refined yet textured look.

Balancing the bold pattern, the underlays combine mesh, suede and leather in warm tan hues, enhancing the sneaker’s natural, earthy appeal. Subtle yet impactful pops of red on the toe box, midsole and heel branding introduce a hint of unexpected vibrancy, completing the design.
