Noob question, just got my black 2002R’s from the protection pack. Did these come with extra laces or just the black?

Honestly, without 80s-90s DC New Balance might not have become what it is now. It's understandable for folks not from the area to have opinions but trust me when I say DC held NB down well before they popularized elsewhere. I don't mind what has transpired these past few years. I got tired of wearing predominantly grey and only select models. I appreciate more awareness and options now. gave me the opportunity to finally off load a lot of Nikes and Jordans to where my collection is mostly NB now, and being in my mid 30's, my feet are more than grateful for this choice.

Just black. No extra laces.
Maybe it's where you are from. Just going by the other posts that stigma didn't seem to exist back in the day.

Honestly depends on your feet shape. But I go a half size down.

I have wider foot and go TTS with the v2, but it's still a little long. Half size down seemed to be consensus with these. The tan toes are easy af to wear though, I think I've already wore them like 4-5 times since they came in.
