FAQs

Are the New Balance 1890 trainers water-resistant?

No, the wool construction is not naturally waterproof. It is recommended to treat them with a fabric-safe protector if you anticipate light moisture, but they are best suited for dry conditions.

How should I clean the wool upper?

Spot clean only using a damp cloth and mild, wool-specific detergent. Avoid soaking the shoes or using a machine wash/dryer cycle.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if preferred.

Is the 1890 series true to size?

Yes, the 1890 series generally adheres to standard UK sizing, though the wool upper may provide a slightly more relaxed fit over time compared to stiff leather models.

What is the primary benefit of the Abzorb series?

The Abzorb technology is specifically designed to provide superior cushioning and shock absorption to minimize the impact on your joints.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature performance-inspired support, they are classified as trainers designed for casual use, walking, and daily wear rather than high-mileage athletic running.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on the wool upper

Use a soft, dry brush to gently lift dirt particles without rubbing them deeper into the fibers.

The shoe feels slightly loose or tight

Adjust the lacing tension throughout the eyelets to customize the lockdown and mid-foot support.

Unpleasant odor after extended wear

Remove the insoles to air out and use a fabric-safe deodorizing spray; avoid placing the shoes in a washing machine.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • Wool material is more delicate than synthetic alternatives
  • Requires specific cleaning methods to prevent damage
  • Limited water resistance due to the natural fibers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 1890 trainers, proper care is essential. Because the shoes utilize a wool upper, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh industrial detergents. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt and spot-clean stains with a damp cloth and mild, wool-safe soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to shrink or stiffen. Ensure you verify your UK shoe size (11 in this variant) to maintain proper arch alignment.
