FAQs

What makes the ABZORB sole special?

The ABZORB sole combines exceptional shock absorption with responsive cushioning. It features both standard ABZORB cushioning and ABZORB SBS pods, working together to provide superior comfort and reduce impact during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes and offering good cushioning, they are best suited for casual wear, walking, and light training rather than intense or specialized running activities.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable mesh and printed synthetic overlays, offering a balance of comfort and durability.

How do I determine the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance and measure your foot. These trainers are listed in UK adult sizes.

Can I wear these with orthotics?

Yes, the removable insole allows space for most standard orthotics or custom insoles. However, fit may vary depending on the thickness of the orthotic.

What colors are available?

This specific model is featured in Neptune Grey and Slate Grey variations.

What is the purpose of the Stability Web shank?

The Stability Web shank is integrated into the sole to provide torsional rigidity and support to the midfoot, helping to prevent excessive foot motion and enhance overall stability.

Troubleshooting

Slightly stiff upon first wear.

This is normal for new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Dirt accumulation on mesh areas.

Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution to gently clean the mesh. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning feel over time.

While ABZORB technology is durable, cushioning can decrease with heavy use. Ensure you are not exceeding recommended use for trainer comfort, such as very strenuous athletic activities.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and shock absorption with ABZORB technology.
  • Enhanced stability and support from the Stability Web shank.
  • Stylish, retro design that stands out.
  • Durable construction suitable for everyday wear.
  • Comfortable for extended periods of use.

Cons

  • The specific 2000s aesthetic might not align with all fashion preferences.
  • May be perceived as bulky by users preferring minimalist footwear.
  • Primarily designed for trainers/casual wear, not specialized sports.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup as they are ready to wear out of the box. They are compatible with standard sock types. To care for your ABZORB 2000 trainers, it is recommended to spot clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging them in water, as this can damage the materials and sole construction. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For stubborn dirt on the synthetic overlays or mesh, a soft brush can be used gently. Ensure proper storage in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and condition.
