FAQs

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam cushioning technology that resists compression and absorbs impact through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense workouts?

While the ABZORB 2000 features running-inspired technology, its primary design focus is on lifestyle and casual wear. For intense running or athletic training, dedicated performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I find the right size?

We recommend checking the New Balance official sizing guide. If possible, try them on to ensure a comfortable and secure fit. These are listed as UK sizes.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the trainers. Follow the care instructions for spot cleaning and air drying.

What does 'visible tech' mean in this context?

'Visible tech' refers to the design choice to make the advanced cushioning components, such as the ABZORB SBS pods, an exposed and integral part of the trainer's aesthetic, rather than hiding them within the sole.

Are there other color options available for the ABZORB 2000?

Yes, the ABZORB 2000 series typically offers a range of color combinations. This particular variant is Blue/Grey, but Blue/Silver is also available in other sizes. Check available stock for current color options.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

For optimal comfort and to manage moisture, wearing athletic or moisture-wicking socks is recommended. The choice of sock thickness can also slightly influence the fit.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort after extended wear.

Ensure you have the correct size. Consider replacing the standard insole with an orthotic insert if you require additional arch support or specialized cushioning.

Visible tech elements (ABZORB pods) appear dirty or scuffed.

Gently clean with a soft brush and a mild soap solution. For deeper scuffs, specialized shoe polish for synthetic materials might help, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Trainers feel less cushioned over time.

While ABZORB cushioning is durable, all cushioning materials eventually compress. Ensure proper care, and consider replacing trainers after significant mileage or prolonged use to maintain optimal support and comfort.

Setup: Simply slip them on. Ensure you choose the correct size for a comfortable fit. Refer to New Balance sizing charts if unsure. Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adults and are available in various UK sizes, including UK 6.5, suitable for both men and women (Unisex). They are intended for casual wear and general daily activities rather than specialized sports. Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ABZORB 2000 Trainers: 1. Cleaning: Wipe visible dirt and dust from the upper with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild shoe cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear. Avoid harsh chemicals. 2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage materials. 3. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation and discoloration. 4. Maintenance: Regularly check laces and insoles for wear and replace if necessary for continued comfort and support.
