FAQs

What is ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is a cushioning technology developed by New Balance that provides shock absorption and a responsive feel, helping to reduce the impact on your feet.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature advanced cushioning inspired by running shoes, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers for comfort and style. For intense running, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.

What does the 'Aminé Biblioteca' collaboration signify?

This signifies a special collaboration between New Balance and the artist Aminé, featuring unique design elements and colorways inspired by the artist's vision.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning. Hand washing following the care instructions is the preferred method.

Do the reflective details work in all lighting conditions?

The reflective details are designed to reflect light sources, such as headlights, making them visible in low-light conditions when a direct light source is present. They do not glow in the dark.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. If the issue persists and they are new, consider if a half-size larger might be more comfortable, depending on availability.

Squeaking sound during walking

This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure there isn't any moisture trapped within the sole unit. If it persists, contact customer support.

Dirt or stains on the mesh upper

Use a soft brush and a mild soap-and-water solution. Gently spot clean the affected area. For stubborn stains, a dedicated sneaker cleaner might be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. They are designed for general adult use and are compatible with standard athletic socks.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the mesh and synthetic overlays, use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and cool water solution. Gently scrub away dirt and stains. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe down the ABZORB midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, a soft brush can be used.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
