FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While the ABZORB cushioning provides comfort, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not high-impact running.

What is the primary benefit of ABZORB technology?

ABZORB technology is designed to provide excellent shock absorption and a responsive feel, reducing impact on the feet and joints.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance, comparing your foot measurement to the corresponding UK size. The listed size (e.g., UK 9.5) is the size of the product.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The trainers are not waterproof. While they offer some protection, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended.

What is the main difference between this and older 2000s models?

The ABZORB 2010 features a modernized, segmented ABZORB sole unit with expanded proportions and updated material combinations, while retaining a familiar aesthetic.

How do I clean the nubuck panels?

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a damp cloth with a very mild cleaner may be used cautiously, followed by air drying.

What does 'utilitarian aesthetic' mean for these shoes?

It refers to design elements inspired by practical, functional gear, such as the hiker laces, durable ripstop material, and reflective accents, lending a rugged yet stylish appearance.

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone frequently.

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot, or consider replacing them with laces that offer better grip.

Discomfort after initial wear.

Allow a break-in period of a few wears, as the materials will adapt to your foot shape. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.

Slight stiffness in the sole.

The segmented ABZORB sole unit may feel firm initially. Regular wear will help to soften it as it conforms to your gait.

Appearance of dirt or stains.

Clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap, focusing on the affected area. Blot dry and allow to air dry.

  • Durable construction with ripstop and nubuck materials.
  • Stylish, utilitarian design that stands out.
  • Comfortable for extended periods of wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup upon purchase; they are ready to wear. Their unisex design makes them compatible with a wide range of foot shapes.

Care Instructions: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ABZORB 2010 trainers, it is recommended to spot clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or prolonged submersion in water, as this can damage the materials and cushioning. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For the nubuck panels, a suede brush can be used to restore their texture.

Material Considerations: The ripstop, nubuck, and synthetic panelling combination offers durability but may be susceptible to staining. Regular cleaning is advised.
