Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Abzorb 2000 is a unisex trainer designed for adults who prioritize a blend of heritage-inspired aesthetics and modern cushioning technology. By incorporating both full-length ABZORB cushioning and specialized ABZORB SBS pods, the shoe provides substantial underfoot support, though its experimental, chunky profile may feel too bold for those who prefer strictly understated or traditional athletic silhouettes.

FAQs
Are the New Balance Abzorb 2000 trainers true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing conventions.
Can I use these for running?
While they feature running-inspired technology, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.
How do I clean the white accents?
Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to spot clean the white areas, ensuring you do not soak the material.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The unisex design provides a standard width that fits most foot shapes, but users with extra-wide feet may want to try them on for fit.
What is the difference between ABZORB and ABZORB SBS?
ABZORB is standard foam cushioning, while ABZORB SBS is a higher-performance engineered material meant for added impact protection in specific zones.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the beige upper
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle, damp microfiber cloth to lightly buff the affected area.
Midsole foam feels stiff initially
This is common with new ABZORB technology; wear the shoes for short periods over 3-4 days to allow the foam to conform to your gait.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers come in a variety of material compositions—ranging from polyester to linen—care depends on your specific pair. Always check the internal tag for material specifics.
- Sizing: These trainers are standard adult sizing; choose your usual size for the best fit.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the midsole. If using cleaning products, ensure they are compatible with your shoe's specific material (polyester or linen).
- Protection: Apply a water-repellent spray suitable for light-colored footwear to guard against stains.
- Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources to prevent the cushioning materials from compressing or warping prematurely.
