FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
Yes, the New Balance Abzorb 1890 typically fits consistently with other standard New Balance lifestyle models.
Can I use these for running?
While they utilize athletic-inspired technology, they are designed as lifestyle trainers and are best suited for walking and casual daily use rather than high-performance running.
How do I maintain the mesh upper?
Keep them dry, and if they get wet, stuff them with paper to maintain shape and let them air dry away from heat sources.
Is the branding subtle?
The branding is integrated into the design, appearing on various parts of the shoe to highlight the collaboration without being overly loud.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The mesh construction offers a degree of flexibility, but fit can vary based on individual foot shape; we recommend trying your standard size.
What is the inspiration behind this model?
This design draws from nineties football culture and combines archival elements like the 890v3 upper with the technical 2002 sole.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt trapped in the mesh
Use a dry soft brush to flick out debris; do not push dirt deeper into the fabric.
Midsole scuffing
Wipe with a melamine foam eraser or mild soap and a damp cloth to restore the clean look of the white sole unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are a technical sneaker, proper care is essential to preserve the mesh and drop-pattern details. Keep the shoes away from heavy mud or abrasive terrain to prevent damage to the upper. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the mesh and a damp cloth for the midsole. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can compromise the specialized bonding of the drop-pattern overlay. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
