Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

No, the ABZORB 1890 is designed for lifestyle and casual everyday use, not for high-intensity running.

How should I clean the exterior?

Use a damp cloth for leather components and a dry, soft brush for suede sections. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.

Does the ABZORB midsole lose its cushion over time?

Like all foam-based cushioning, some compression is normal over time, but the high-quality materials are designed to maintain comfort for an extended lifecycle.

Can I use custom orthotic insoles with these shoes?

Yes, the standard insole is generally removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.

Are the sizes true to fit?

New Balance trainers generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to reference the brand's specific size chart to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

The trainers feel stiff when brand new

Wear them indoors for a few hours over several days to allow the midsole and upper materials to break in and conform to your foot.

Surface scuffs on the leather/suede

Use a specialized sneaker eraser for suede or a dedicated leather cleaner for leather sections to minimize visible marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 1890s last, it is important to handle them according to their material. If your pair is crafted from suede, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt gently. For leather variants, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth and apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent cracking. Always air dry your shoes at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials or dry out the leather.
