FAQs

What is ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is a proprietary cushioning technology from New Balance that provides a unique combination of cushioning and odor resistance. It helps to absorb impact and provide a responsive feel underfoot.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by running classics and featuring advanced cushioning, the ABZORB 2000 are primarily designed as lifestyle or casual trainers. For dedicated high-performance running, specific running shoe models may be more appropriate.

How do I clean the reflective details?

Gently wipe the reflective details with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive pressure, which could damage the reflective coating.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and supportive synthetic overlays.

What is the primary color family of this model?

The primary color family is Grey, with secondary Silver color accents.

Can these shoes be worn by women?

These are marketed towards men and are available in men's sizing. However, due to the unisex nature of sneaker styles, women may also wear them if they select the appropriate size conversion.

How do the ABZORB SBS pods differ from the main ABZORB midsole?

The ABZORB SBS pods are specific, targeted areas of enhanced cushioning integrated into the main ABZORB midsole, designed to provide localized impact absorption and stability in key areas of the foot.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the issue persists, consider using thinner socks or ensuring the laces are not over-tightened. The ABZORB cushioning will also conform to your foot over time.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

While ABZORB technology is durable, consistent heavy use can gradually reduce its responsiveness. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after extensive wear, typically after several hundred miles of use or when signs of significant wear appear.

Dirt or stains on the mesh upper

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution to gently spot clean the affected area. Avoid soaking the entire shoe. Allow to air dry.

Slipping or lack of traction

Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the outsole with water to remove any slick substances. If the outsole is significantly worn, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing to prevent damage to the materials.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Clean the ABZORB midsole and rubber outsole with a mild soap and water solution. Use a soft brush for any stubborn dirt.
  3. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to maintain their condition.
