  • Our take on the New Balance 2002DX

    The New Balance 2002DX is a waterproof version of the 2002R retro runner, built with a Gore-Tex membrane over a mesh and suede upper. It keeps the 2002R's N-ergy and ABZORB cushioning and adds a grippy outsole for wet pavement. It suits people who want a technical-looking everyday sneaker they can wear through rain and slush. Against plain 2002R models it trades breathability for weather protection, and against hiking shoes it is lighter and more street-styled.

    Pros
    • Gore-Tex membrane keeps feet dry in rain and slush
    • N-ergy and ABZORB cushioning underfoot
    • Retro 2002R shape with layered mesh and suede
    • Grippy outsole holds on wet pavement
    • Works as a daily sneaker, not just a technical shoe
    Cons

    • Waterproofing needs care to last; mud and salt can clog the membrane
    • Limited colorways and sizes compared with the core 2002R line

    What reviewers say

    Owners of the 2002DX and its Gore-Tex siblings praise the dry feet and the familiar 2002R comfort, and most say the waterproofing holds up in steady rain. The common complaint is heat and bulk: the lined upper feels warmer and less breathable than a regular 2002R.

    Questions and answers

    Is the New Balance 2002DX actually waterproof?
    Yes. It has a Gore-Tex membrane built into the upper, so it resists rain and puddles. It is water-resistant rather than submersible, and water can still enter over the collar in deep water.
    How does the 2002DX differ from the standard 2002R?
    Same 2002R shape and cushioning, but the DX adds a Gore-Tex liner and a more weather-ready build. The trade-off is less breathability and a bit more weight.
    Does it fit true to size?
    Most people take their usual New Balance size. The lined upper fits slightly snugger than a mesh 2002R, so wide feet may want to size up or try before buying.
    Is it good for summer wear?
    Less so. The waterproof lining traps heat, so it is best for fall, winter and wet spring days rather than hot weather.
    How should I care for the Gore-Tex upper?
    Brush off mud and salt, wipe with a damp cloth and air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing, which can damage the membrane and glued layers.
    What is in the box?
    One pair of sneakers with the factory laces. No extra laces or care kit are included.
    Where is the New Balance 2002DX cheapest?
    At HBX, for $100.00, as of our latest check.
