FAQs
What makes the ABZORB cushioning unique?
ABZORB cushioning is engineered by New Balance to provide a superior combination of impact absorption and rebound, offering comfort without sacrificing responsiveness.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The Abzorb 2000 Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for the high demands of marathon running.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot to ensure you select the correct UK size. These trainers are unisex, so consider standard unisex sizing guidelines.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials, the cushioning technology, and the overall structure of the shoe. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap only.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper combines various materials including Cotton, Leather, and Nylon, depending on the specific variant. This blend aims to provide breathability, durability, and a sleek aesthetic.
How does the ABZORB SBS pod system work?
ABZORB SBS pods are integrated into the midsole to provide targeted cushioning and support in critical areas, enhancing stability and shock absorption during each step.
What does 'visible tech' mean in the product description?
'Visible tech' refers to the design philosophy where the advanced cushioning technologies, like the ABZORB pods, are made visually apparent as part of the shoe's aesthetic, showcasing its performance features.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on arrival
Wear the trainers for short periods initially. The materials, especially cotton and leather variants, will naturally adapt to your foot shape over time, providing a more comfortable fit.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
Ensure the ABZORB pods and cushioning are free from debris. Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth. The inherent cushioning technology is designed for durability but may feel less pronounced as the shoe naturally breaks in.
Discoloration on the upper
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. If slight discoloration occurs, try cleaning with a damp cloth. For specific material types (e.g., leather), use appropriate leather cleaners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The unisex design makes them compatible with a wide range of adult foot shapes. They are versatile for pairing with various casual attire.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap with cool water and a clean cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
