FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance Abzorb 2000 is designed with a regular fit and is generally true to size for adult feet.

Can I use these for long-distance running?

These trainers are optimized for everyday use and light running; for dedicated long-distance running, professional performance-specific models are recommended.

How should I clean the polyester upper?

Gently wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the material, as this can affect the underlying structure.

Are these suitable for people with wide feet?

The shoe features a regular fit; individuals with very wide feet may find them snug, though the flexible upper allows for some natural accommodation.

What is the primary difference between ABZORB and ABZORB-SBS?

ABZORB is standard foam-based cushioning for comfort, while ABZORB-SBS is a specialized material offering improved energy return and long-lasting durability.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping or instability

Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly through all eyelets to lock the midfoot against the Stability Web support.

Material showing signs of creasing

This is normal with polyester textiles during use; using cedar shoe trees when not worn can help maintain the shoe's structural integrity.

Sole collecting debris

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning brush or a toothpick to gently dislodge small pebbles from the tread patterns to maintain grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent dual-purpose performance for walking and light running
  • Stable midfoot support via Stability Web technology
  • Sophisticated, versatile color palette that pairs easily with casual attire
  • Consistent, true-to-size fit for most adult foot shapes

Cons

  • Polyester upper may hold heat more than mesh-only trainers
  • Limited to specific sizing availability in the unisex range
  • Lacks the traditional feel of leather-based footwear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Break-in: These shoes are designed with a regular fit and are true to size; minimal break-in time is required.
  • Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt. For stubborn spots on the polyester upper, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a clean cloth. Do not machine wash or dry, as this can compromise the adhesives and cushioning materials.
  • Air Dry: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or discolor.
