Kith x New Balance 2002R "Pistachio": Review & On-Feet

[@phillip_reynolds]

I really like the look of the 2002R better than the 993 pair. Great video my guy!

[@SeanGo]

Appreciate it!

[@intrnsition24]

Same, in hand they are so buttery and light, so smooth and sleek. Beautiful sneaker

[@CGrantMusic1]

Agreed. Both are fire but really like the 2002R shape

[@Pro-habits]

New balance took over this year with crazy design can’t wait to see what they have in 2023

[@aseemsood034]

Unpopular opinion but the 2002r is the star of this pack. Nubuck is a more premium material than suede and theres wy more of it on the 2002r than suede on the 993. The overlays are synthetic on the 993 as well but for $60 more. The midsole on the 2002r just looks better and the N logo is suede also

[@RC-xk9bk]

I agree also that having both pairs is redundant. I also chose 2002r from a budgetary angle over the 993

[@402car_kid4]

Bro lol. I’ve literally grabbed like 6 NBs in the last month after watching your videos😂😂 now I need these as well 😂😂

[@SeanGo]

LOLOL

[@karenk3458]

I also liked them both but missed out unfortunately I also preferred the 993s in this beautiful colorway.

[@dahlei]

really tough choice between these and the 993s, but I think I'd also prefer the 993s. maybe the 2002r fatigue is kicking in 😅 did you cop anything from the lunar new year collection?

[@GOD999MODE]

993s are prob one of the best NB shoes. I've been rocking with them since the early 2000s. Go with them!

[@SeanGo]

Yup both 550 and the 2002RD

[@MrFritzwho]

I picked these up over the 993s since I already have the JFG 993 Sage. Hope you review the Lunar New Year 2002R! I would’ve picked it up, but recently was gifted the 2002R Rain Clouds!

[@mhdhrs66]

Been waiting for this! Hopefully I can grab a pair for myself.

[@blackgoblin1004]

Dammit! Just copped the protection pack drop from this morning. This colorway is very clean

[@jakereilly5901]

Such a nice shoe! Great to see your review on this. Really wish KITH didn’t cancel my Exclusive Access order saying they didn’t have enough stock to fulfill…

[@84alexism]

Wow I had to keep emailing got them but took forever to ship

[@SeanGo]

Sorry to hear that 😢

[@Unxpekted]

Maaan I might be on a boat but I like these slightly better than the 993! It's something about the earthy tones and colors that really work with that aggressive sole. You don't see that in the 993. Dope review

[@stvn_ben]

Just bought this and I think the color looks better in person. However I think the midsole is harder than the 2002R Rain Cloud. I got pain in forefoot when using this while traveling. Does the 2002R have different type of midsole?

[@SeanGo]

I didn’t notice a diff myself

[@sammon1415]

do I settle for the 2002r or do I pay the premium after-market for the 993? lmao this colourway goes so hard I'm really trying to resist!

[@samlee458]

🔥. hope they bring back loyalty program. couldn’t cop a single kith collab since lol.

[@bkaws7257]

They still have it going I was able to get this CW early before release

[@dejones803]

Are you going to review the new Teddy Santis 990v3?

[@danielcalderon407]

Where did you buy these pants??

[@ah21111988]

I like both 2002r and 993 but because the 993 has a pigskin (can't wear it as a muslim) I'd get the 2002r, but I have a question since the shoe is fully nubuck, is it breathable?

[@SeanGo]

no not really

[@kevdaylight]

The color is so good

[@jugg3rnog]

very clean pair. but overall, do you prefer these 2002R's or the Protection Pack 2002R's?

[@SeanGo]

Protection pack

[@slipperysnake3822]

Glad I went for the 993s

[@jenniferturner23]

I love both pairs but have thought about these just bc the 993s are going for so much more…

[@Oying76]

New Balance has a lot of hit this year. Did you cop the last NB Teddy Santis release?

[@SeanGo]

Yeah I did from ALD

[@RC-xk9bk]

Love my pair

[@jdogbeck1]

Sean let’s goooo

[@ddavisfitness5935]

Yo bro that jacket is fire 🔥 ‼️

[@SeanGo]

Thanks!

[@meganalexandre3613]

You should start making YT shorts, I’m 1,000,000 percent sure that they will do good

[@Flowpesci]

ID on pants?

[@nb_fanatic]

When they ask you your size, don’t forget to hit ‘em with “slightly on the wider side” 😈

[@OldDolio312]

Kith could’ve added a K somewhere jeez

[@kzrmxmln]

They should make a colorway/style named "bankrupt".

[@SeanGo]

Lol

[@sijilo]

👍🏻

[@Charlie-rq8bl]

how come there's no KITH branding on the shoe at all to show at least a little sign of "collaboration" lool? It's not even on the insole!

[@91smartiez]

Does this model contain pig skin ?
