FAQs
What is the primary benefit of ABZORB technology?
ABZORB technology is designed to absorb impact and provide a responsive, cushioned feel, reducing stress on your feet and joints.
Are these trainers suitable for professional athletic training?
While they offer excellent cushioning and support for everyday training and casual running, they are best suited for general fitness and lifestyle wear rather than high-performance, specialized athletic disciplines.
How do the ABZORB SBS pods differ from the full-length ABZORB cushioning?
The full-length ABZORB provides overall shock absorption, while ABZORB SBS pods are specifically engineered for enhanced stability and targeted cushioning in key areas of the foot.
What kind of activities are these trainers best for?
They are ideal for walking, standing for long periods, casual wear, and light gym activities. Their design also makes them a stylish option for everyday fashion.
How should I clean my ABZORB 2000 trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemicals. Allow them to air dry.
Can I wear these trainers with orthotics?
The trainers generally accommodate standard insoles. If you use custom orthotics, check for sufficient space and comfort by trying them with your orthotics inserted.
What sizes are available?
These trainers are available in a range of adult UK sizes. Please refer to the product listing for the specific size chart and available options.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Try double-knotting the laces or consider replacing them with laces that offer better grip.
Slight stiffness during initial wear
Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet. Consider using thicker socks for added comfort during the break-in phase.
Uneven wear on the outsole
Ensure you are using the correct pair for the intended activity. For everyday wear, monitor gait patterns; for athletic activities, ensure proper form.
Discoloration of the upper material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and clean according to care instructions to prevent fading or staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Compatibility is broad, as they are designed for adult unisex use and fit standard UK sizing. For care, it is recommended to spot clean the trainers using a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the materials and cushioning. Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Regular cleaning will help maintain their appearance and extend their lifespan.
