FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by 2000s running classics, the Abzorb 2000 is primarily categorized as a lifestyle trainer designed for comfort and daily wear.

What does ABZORB SBS stand for?

ABZORB SBS is a technical cushioning material that provides advanced compression resistance, ensuring the foam does not lose its shape over time.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.

How should I clean the polyester upper?

Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth, dabbing the surface gently rather than scrubbing to maintain the fabric's integrity.

Do these fit true to size?

The New Balance Abzorb 2000 generally fits true to standard adult sizing, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to go up a half-size.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers, as the high heat and agitation can damage the cushioning pods and structural adhesives.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs on the midsole

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a melamine sponge dampened with water to gently buff out marks on the sole unit.

Uncomfortable pressure points

Check that your laces are not overtightened; consider adjusting the lacing pattern to accommodate your specific foot width.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Advanced cushioning system for all-day comfort
  • Striking, modern design inspired by archival running styles
  • Durable construction suitable for daily wear
  • Unisex fit caters to a broad demographic

Cons

  • Bold, experimental design may be polarizing for minimalist fans
  • Specific maintenance required to keep the technical sole aesthetic clean
  • Limited to specific colourways and series availability

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance Abzorb 2000s maintain their structure and aesthetic, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the minimalist upper after every few wears. For the sole unit, use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution to clean the ABZORB pods, being careful not to soak the fabric components. Always air dry your trainers naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials or adhesive bonds. When choosing your size, follow standard adult UK sizing for a secure, supportive fit.
