New Balance continues to deepen its significant partnership with Portuguese football giants FC Porto, moving beyond the pitch to celebrate their decade-long alliance with a special edition FC Porto x New Balance 2002R sneaker. While FC Porto may have recently faced challenges in the Club World Cup, this off-field initiative highlights New Balance’s commitment to the club and its global fanbase. The design of the 2002R pays meticulous tribute to FC Porto’s colors and ethos, offering a unique piece of merchandise that transcends typical club memorabilia and integrates effortlessly into everyday streetwear.
The sneaker’s upper features a breathable navy mesh base, layered with panels of grey, white, and royal blue suede and leather, creating a sophisticated yet sporty appeal. Subtle touches of orange and yellow provide energetic pops of color on the heel, logos, and inner tongue, injecting vibrancy into the design. The collaboration’s true homage is found on the striped insoles, which proudly display the FC Porto crest. It retains the model’s acclaimed ABZORB and N-ergy cushioning in the sole unit, ensuring plush comfort and responsive support.
