FAQs

Are the New Balance 1000 Cordura shoes waterproof?

The Cordura ripstop material is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light moisture and splashes. However, the shoes are not fully waterproof, especially due to the suede overlays. We recommend using a suede protector for enhanced water resistance.

How should I clean the Cordura material?

For the Cordura sections, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue. Allow the shoes to air dry completely.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam-based material that provides superior shock absorption and cushioning, helping to reduce impact and enhance comfort during wear.

What does the Stability Web midfoot shank do?

The Stability Web is a lightweight, arch-supporting technology that provides optimal midfoot rigidity, helping to prevent excessive pronation and offering enhanced stability during your stride.

Can I use these shoes for running or intense workouts?

While the New Balance 1000 Cordura offers cushioning and support, they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers with performance-inspired features. For dedicated running or intense athletic training, we recommend choosing shoes specifically engineered for those activities.

What size should I choose?

This particular model is a UK Size 10 for adults and generally runs true to size. If you are unsure, it is often best to refer to New Balance's official sizing guide or try them on to ensure the best fit.

How long do these shoes typically last?

With proper care and depending on frequency of use, the New Balance 1000 Cordura is built for durability, thanks to its robust materials like Cordura and premium suede. Regular maintenance will significantly extend their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears flattened or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner with a clean cloth, then brush once dry.

Feet feel uncomfortable or unstable after extended wear.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks and that the lacing is snug but not overly tight. Check if your current insoles are worn out; replacing them with orthotic insoles can sometimes improve comfort and support.

Water stains on the suede portions after exposure to moisture.

If the suede gets wet, blot it immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Do not rub. Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Prevent future stains by applying a water and stain repellent specifically for suede before wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Simply unlace, slide your foot in, and lace up for a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure laces are tied securely to fully engage the Stability Web support.

Care

  • Cordura Ripstop: For general dirt, gently wipe the Cordura sections with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry away from direct heat.
  • Premium Suede: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Always apply a suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to guard against water and stains.
  • General Cleaning: Remove insoles and wash separately if desired. Clean the sole unit with a brush and soapy water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape.
