FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB 2000 cushioning?

The primary benefit is the combination of full-length ABZORB cushioning and ABZORB SBS pods, which provides exceptional shock absorption, comfort, and stability for daily wear and light training.

Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?

While the ABZORB cushioning offers comfort, the ABZORB 2000 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and light training trainer. For dedicated long-distance running, specialized running shoes with specific support features might be more appropriate.

How should I clean the Grey and Pink colourway?

Gently clean the upper with a soft brush or damp cloth. For the sole, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally and avoid harsh chemicals.

What does 'minimalist-influenced upper design' mean?

It refers to the clean, uncluttered aesthetic of the shoe's upper part, focusing on essential lines and materials rather than excessive detailing, which contributes to a modern and sleek look.

Can I wear these trainers if I have wide feet?

The ABZORB 2000 is a unisex trainer. While specific width options are not detailed, the minimalist upper design might offer some flexibility. It is recommended to check sizing guides or try them on if possible for the best fit.

What is the 'visible tech' mentioned in the description?

Visible tech refers to design elements where the advanced technology, such as the ABZORB SBS pods in the sole, is made apparent through the shoe's construction and aesthetics, highlighting the innovation.

What is the return policy if the size doesn't fit?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the retailer from whom you purchased the New Balance ABZORB 2000 trainers regarding exchanges or returns for sizing issues.

Troubleshooting

Trainer feels too tight or uncomfortable

This can sometimes occur with new footwear. Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If discomfort persists, consider using thicker socks or checking if the lacing needs adjustment.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole provides grip, but like all footwear, traction can vary on wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For increased grip on specific surfaces, consider an aftermarket traction spray if needed for light activities.

Discoloration on the upper material

Avoid exposing the trainers to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. If discoloration occurs, try gentle cleaning with a damp cloth as per the care instructions. For specific stains, consult specialized shoe cleaning guides for synthetic materials.
