Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Abzorb 2000 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of retro running style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light training. Their key benefit is the full-length ABZORB cushioning, offering excellent shock absorption. A potential caveat is their specific suitability for light activities rather than intense athletic performance. These unisex trainers feature a progressive, experimental design inspired by 2000s running classics, a minimalist-influenced upper, and a distinctive sculpted midsole.

FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance Abzorb 2000 are designed for everyday wear and light training. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced support and cushioning tailored for long-distance performance are recommended.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing guide or measure your foot length and compare it to the size chart. The 'UK' size indicated (e.g., UK 3.5) corresponds to a specific foot measurement.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Cleaning with a soft brush and mild soap is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials and cushioning.

What does 'ABZORB' cushioning mean?

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary technology that provides a combination of cushioning and compression resistance, helping to absorb impact forces and providing a responsive feel.

Is the 'Stability Web' shank removable?

The Stability Web shank is an integrated part of the shoe's midsole structure and is not designed to be removed.

What is the material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of synthetic materials and mesh, designed for breathability and a lightweight feel.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This guide specifically details the White/Grey colourway. Please check product listings for availability of other colors in the New Balance 2000 series.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness on first wear

This is normal for new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Discomfort in the arch area

Ensure you have the correct size and width. If discomfort persists, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for arch support, as the standard ones offer moderate support.

Laces coming undone frequently

Try a different lacing technique such as a surgeon's knot, or consider replacing the laces with a pair that has better grip.

Outer sole showing signs of wear

This may indicate heavy use or walking on abrasive surfaces. For everyday wear and light training, wear and tear should be minimal. If excessive, re-evaluate usage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent shock absorption due to full-length ABZORB cushioning.
  • Comfortable for extended daily wear.
  • Stylish, retro-inspired design with modern technological features.
  • Versatile for casual use and light training sessions.
  • Breathable upper design helps keep feet cool.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient support for high-intensity athletic activities.
  • The experimental design might not appeal to all style preferences.
  • Durability for very rigorous use may be a concern.
  • Synthetic and mesh materials might require specific cleaning methods.
  • Standard width fit may not suit very wide or narrow feet without adjustments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure they are the correct size and wear them. The lace-up closure allows for adjustable fitting.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex adult wear. The standard (D) width fit is designed for most foot types. They pair well with casual attire, athleisure wear, and activewear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For synthetic and mesh materials, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Soles: Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush may be used.
  4. Insoles: If removable, clean insoles separately according to material guidelines and ensure they are fully dry before reinserting.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box, away from direct sunlight.
