FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is designed to absorb impact, providing superior cushioning and comfort for your feet, reducing stress during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 1000 Trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual athletic wear. While they offer good cushioning for walking and light activity, they are not intended for intense or professional running.

How should I care for the leather parts of the trainers?

Wipe leather with a damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner for stains. Condition the leather periodically to maintain its suppleness and prevent drying.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning system of the trainers.

What does the Stability Web shank do?

The Stability Web shank is located in the midfoot and provides torsional rigidity, enhancing support and preventing excessive twisting of the foot.

Do these trainers come in other colours?

The New Balance 1000 series is available in various colourways. This specific guide focuses on the Pink variant with Red accents.

What is the original release year of the New Balance 1000?

The New Balance 1000 was originally released in 1999, making this a relaunch of a late 90s classic.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thinner socks initially. If the issue persists after a few wears, consider if a larger size is needed. For minor tightness, break-in period may help.

Discoloration on leather or mesh

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for the respective material. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Reduced cushioning feel

The ABZORB cushioning may become less responsive over extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities beyond their intended scope (e.g., intense running).
