FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the ABZORB technology?

ABZORB technology in the midsole provides superior cushioning and shock absorption, leading to softer landings and enhanced comfort during wear.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While they offer good cushioning, the New Balance 1890 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced performance features are recommended.

How do I clean the textile and synthetic upper?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap and a soft brush for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing to preserve the material integrity.

What does 'Boysenberry Punch Yellow' refer to?

This describes the vibrant colorway of the trainers, featuring a primary Boysenberry Punch shade with Yellow accents and subtle purple hues.

Can these shoes be worn by both men and women?

Yes, these trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adults of any gender.

What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?

With proper care and regular use for lifestyle purposes, these trainers are built for durability. Lifespan varies based on usage frequency and conditions.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The product information specifies the 'Boysenberry Punch Yellow' colorway. Please refer to retailer listings for information on other available colors or models in the 1890 series.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check if the laces are tied too tightly or too loosely.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB technology is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider rotating with other footwear for daily wear.

Color transfer from shoes to socks

This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. Washing the shoes (if recommended for specific materials) or wearing darker socks may help. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:
