FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by running classics, the Abzorb 2000 is primarily a lifestyle trainer. It is better suited for walking and everyday use than long-distance athletic running.
How do I determine my size?
These trainers use standard UK sizing for adults. If you have worn New Balance before, your usual size is the best starting point.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the internal insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Are the materials waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are made from breathable materials and are best worn in dry conditions.
How often should I clean them?
It depends on frequency of wear. A quick wipe-down after use keeps the grey finish looking fresh and prevents deep-seated dirt.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or marks on the grey upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft brush, testing on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Uncomfortable fit or rubbing
Ensure the laces are not over-tightened and consider using thinner socks to allow more volume within the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance trainers maintain their performance and appearance, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure you have verified your UK size; the Abzorb 2000 offers a standard fit that is generally true to size for adults.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry debris from the upper. For deeper cleaning, wipe the midsole with a damp cloth and mild, non-bleaching soap.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the cushioning materials from degrading or the fabric colors from fading.
- Maintenance: Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the structural integrity of the ABZORB pods and the adhesive bonding.
