FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material. Please use manual cleaning methods.

Are the New Balance Abzorb 1890 trainers suitable for running?

While they are inspired by running heritage, they are designed for lifestyle and casual use rather than performance athletic training.

What materials are used for the exterior?

This specific model features high-quality suede, providing both a soft feel and durable construction.

How should I clean the ABZORB midsole?

Wipe the midsole with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution, then air dry away from heat sources.

Do these trainers provide good arch support?

Yes, the ABZORB midsole provides cushioning that offers balanced support suitable for most foot shapes during daily activities.

Is the sizing consistent with other New Balance models?

Generally, yes. If you are familiar with New Balance sizing, you should find these consistent, though the padded collar may make the initial fit feel snug.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede upper

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently buff away surface debris in the direction of the material's grain.

Laces becoming loose during the day

Ensure the quick lace fastening mechanism is fully engaged and tucked securely into the designated collar loop.

Accumulation of debris in the outsole tread

Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to dislodge stones or dirt trapped in the rubber sole grooves to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Avoid machine washing. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a specialized suede eraser for marks.
  2. Moisture Protection: Apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede before first use to prevent damage from the elements.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the colour and material integrity.
  4. Fitment: These are adult-sized trainers; ensure your UK size (e.g., 6.5) matches your standard fit, as the padded interior offers a snug, supportive embrace.
