Why it’s a must-have
Whether you're styling it with denims, cargos or elevating a fit with premium joggers, the 2002R Protection Pack Phantom blends heritage running tech with lifestyle aesthetics. The silhouette references the original 2002 series but re-imagines it for today’s streetwear. The dark, minimalist palette ensures it’ll slot seamlessly into any wardrobe while still standing out with its material contrast and finishing touches.

Fit & Care Notes

• Fit: True to size (men’s).

• Upper: Suede + breathable mesh — avoid heavy rain and prolonged wet exposure to preserve suede edges.

• Midsole/outsole: ABZORB cushioning with rubber outsole — easy to keep clean with a soft brush and suede cleaner.

• Styling tip: Let the silhouette shine — pair with tapered dark denim and a relaxed tee or an overshirt for a contemporary look.
