FAQs
Are the New Balance 1000 trainers suitable for running?
While they offer excellent cushioning and comfort, they are primarily classified as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.
Does the ABZORB technology lose its cushion over time?
Like all foam-based cushioning, it may experience minor compression over long-term high-intensity use, but it is built to remain resilient for extended periods.
How should I clean the breathable upper material?
Use a soft brush to remove dust and a cloth dampened with water and a tiny bit of mild soap; always air dry away from heat sources.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
They generally follow standard sizing; however, given the chunky build, if you prefer extra room for thicker socks, consider your standard athletic shoe size.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom inserts if desired.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness when new
The foam components typically require a short break-in period of 2-3 days of regular walking to adapt to your foot shape.
Visible scuffs on the midsole
Gently rub the area with a white eraser or a microfiber cloth dampened with a very small amount of mild detergent.
Insole discomfort
Ensure the factory-fitted insole is laid flat. If you use custom orthotics, ensure they are compatible with the depth of the 1000 series profile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers are built with performance materials, proper care is essential to maintain their aesthetic and functionality. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals that could degrade the foam or upper fabrics. Ensure you verify your UK sizing before purchase, as the structure is specifically calibrated for adult foot profiles. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature material aging.
