- Following the success of last year's "Protection Pack / Refined Future Pack", New Balance is set to release a bunch of new colourways this year. Today I'm reviewing the upcoming "Mirage Grey" colourway which draws inspiration from the iconic "JP" colour palette made famous on the 1300 model. Check out my review and drop a comment if you are feeling these!

I find it amazing that these are going for basically retail right now. One of the most underrated sneakers for the last 3 years
Saw one on stockx for 119
I just get a pair from flight club at 98 dlls
I saw this on the new balance website for the longest and I kept my tab open hoping it would come out already! Thanks for the review, hopefully it will be released soon! 🔥
Fav colorway of the 2022 Protection Pack and second fav over all 2002r Protection Pack!
Excited for these to drop!
Such a great colorway for the RFP design! I personally am most excited for the navy colorway! Great review as always!
Thanks! Need Navy too lol
2002R silhouette is definitely here to stay! Almost any colorway of the silhouette is an instant cop and it's so wearable and comfy~
I wear a 9 in the 992 993, im a 9.5 in air max and other jordans nike. Should i stay with a 9 with the 2002r?
@@bigpun6029 just stick with the same size for 992 and 993 and you’re good to go
@@bigpun6029 me personally I’d stay in my Nike 11.5 rather than 11 in the 2002r I’d still get 11 in most the other NBs
I was waiting for this review. thanks
Really hope I can get my hands on this one and the orange pair 🙏 great review as always, much love man ❤️👍
Love the 2002r. Great review with beautiful pictures!
Sean your sizing has been the most on-point of any reviewer. No matter the brand or model, I can take your preferred size and add +1 and I know I'll be alright. Really looking forward to this release and hope I can pick up a pair!
Thanks, glad I can help!
New Balance keeps killing it! I want to go for the Navy pair.
this 6-piece Pack is Beautiful, and I need the pink/purple ones
Phenomenal sneakers. Very nice to see the classic colorways appearing in this pack with this JP and the Navy's being a clear nod to the 1300NAV.
I just wish they left the midsole alone. I'm not a fan of the cream midsole heel on these at all. The grey on the Navy is a little better but I think they'd both look better with the same midsole coloring as the first pack 🤷♂️
Sweet early review Sean, thanks 😊
Got mine the other day, at retail. Blown away by the materials and quality of this release.
This is one of my must cop NB's this year. Looking pretty good on feet, too!
I finally bowed down to the hype, but the bullet and bought these today, my 1st ever pair of NB. I’ve been a devotee of Jordan, Nike & Adidas forever but so many other heads tell me NB beats all in terms of quality and materials. We’ll see. I hope this is a decent pick!
I want the pink protection pack 2002R. Thats a must cop
Dying to get my hands on these in particular of the second round colorways
cop yestarday! i'm very happy! PERFECT COLORWAY!
I would definitely put light yellow laces in these
amazing materials on this shoe, I went down half a size to US9.5 from my normal US10 which was a bit too roomy
Just hit on these from the Extra Butter raffle! Stoked to finally have something from the refined future pack 🔥
Same broo. Hit the raffle and they're on the way! I'm going to try to cop the navy colorway tomorrow.
Great review Sean personally I’m still leaning to the dark navy colorway lol
🔥 love the protection pack. japan cw is so nice! i couldn’t cop any pairs 🤣
They look so nice, I’ll try my best to cop these at retail lol
I threw on some cream laces and they look fire
These are so clean. My favorite out the upcoming pack is the navy one. But these are so 🔥 as well.
✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Love this colourway. but I think that orange pair will hit different. I have enough grey shoes in my collection.
Hopefully they release in the US soon
Just got these pair from a raffle and they look amazing, I have 2 other 2002r nightwatch green and bordeaux colorway and they are the most comfortable shoe ive ever worn
Yes 2002r the best comfortable sneakers for me its a pleasure to wear it !
@@SilentSparck it's true to size, im also 10.5 nike and got the same size
Goat review 🐐
Thank you sir
Thinking of getting this or the one with a stash pocket. 🤔
I really dislike the exposed foam because it allows for it to easily get dirt stuck on the exposed areas but other than that these look great
The orange pair thooooooo 🤤
Great video once again! Will you be doing a review for the dark navy pair as well?
Yup!
Any clues as to when they’re dropping tho?
This looks much better on feet
Copped a pair from New Zealand and wish I doubled up on these. Beautiful shoe, look way better with cream laces.
Where ya get the laces
@@Birdmanjrxxx05 they came extra with the JFG 2002r conversations amongst us.
@@knuckleblood thanks mate I’m going to use those good idea!!🤌🏽
hey sean how different is the color compared the jp colorway
Nice review!!! Where’d you get the pants?
does this fit snug like the vintage orange?
These are very nice. I'm waiting for the new 993 JJJounds coming. Being extra picky this year...only so much $$$!
Should I go true to size on these
No U, i think you are more amazing than the shoes
They are a greenish color in hand
I love these this L is going to hurt bad
So I got the 1906r. Mr porter said a size 7uk was size 8 in men’s. I get the shoes an it says it’s 7 1/2. With 7uk on the box. I was bummed out but I tried them out and they fit perfect, so knowing that. Should I go half down or tts ok these? Thank you. And quality review. Always going extra mile with the details
Tts I’d say
Any idea if the suede is pig skin or regular suede?
This new pack doesn't have that "eroded" look to it tho, it looks too "new", imo.
Yea, wish they kept the hairy suede on the toe box
Fair assessment. Can’t argue this one. Well I can’t
This should be made in China. The one that’s just released in Asia that’s made in Vietnam has a slightly hairier suede and a more rugged look all around.
what's the sizing like on these? I wear size 10, do I need to up half a size. I have the 2002r black fig in size 10 and it feels kinda snug. Was wondering if these would be the same
I'm getting mixed feedbacks because some people are saying with 2002r to go half a size down
Similar sizing as black fig, I went tts in both
@@SeanGo Thank you!
Are the shoes green or grey they vary so much from picture to picture🙏
Right in between? Lmao
Hey just curious is the toe dark olive or grey?
More like a dull olive
What size
Do we have a release date here in Canada?
Nothing yet
Grabbed the vegan 990v5 and now I'm hoping for a vegan 2002r. Please New Balance, make it happen!
I Ordered Mine Off Stockx & It's Been 3 Weeks!? ... That's Why I Only Deal With GOAT ... smh
Goat did me the same way a few times. I had to keep emailing because they didn’t respond
Yep! Goat taking too long to ship too!
Never had an issue with goat only issues have been from the seller
the color seems different from the 1300jp
how uncomfortable are these at a half size down?
I wouldn’t :/
Are these really grey? They look light olive green to me.
It’s a dull olive / grey
UK 9 is a US 10 😅 4:31
Is your pair made in China or Vietnam?
Vietnam
@@SeanGo Yeah, I had no idea these were made in two different factories. So I have a size 10.5 in the black fig colorway that's made in Vietnam. I'm usually a size 10 but these 2002r fit snug.
So I ordered the mirage grey in 10.5 but once I got them I noticed there's more room in the toe box.
Did some digging around on reddit and saw that the mirage grey are made in two different factories: one is china and one in vietnam.
And they both fit different and each have slightly different materials.
Lol kinda sucks!
Mine are made in China, I just received them yesterday from goat.. I’m kinda worried they are not legit..?!
My quality is meh compare to your video and others! It’s nice suede and all but but as hairy!
It’s definitely legit just made in different factories. I will say that the ones made in China are more true to size and the ones made in Vietnam are more snug.
But yeah it’s 100% authentic you should have nothing to worry about
Nah bro! They dropped the ball on this one didn’t use the hairy material just a lookallike😢
Just got mine today and i noticed the craftsmanship isn’t the best, especially the stitching. I know it isn’t a Made in USA/UK model but does anyone else face the same problem too?
