FAQs

Are these New Balance 1000 shoes waterproof?

The Cordura ripstop upper is water-repellent, meaning it resists light moisture and splashes. However, they are not fully waterproof, and prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion should be avoided.

How do I clean the sole of the New Balance 1000?

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution to gently scrub the sole. For tougher marks, a sneaker cleaner or a magic eraser can be effective on the rubber and foam components.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a superior blend of foam cushioning and compression set, designed by New Balance to absorb impact and reduce shock through a combination of cushioning and compression resistance, providing lasting comfort.

Can I wear these shoes for running or intense sports?

While the New Balance 1000 offers excellent cushioning and stability for walking and casual wear, it is not specifically designed as a performance running shoe. For dedicated running, New Balance offers a wide range of models built for athletic performance.

Do these New Balance 1000 Cordura shoes run true to size?

New Balance shoes generally run true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by model and individual foot shape. We recommend referring to New Balance's official size guide and considering your usual sneaker size.

Is the Cordura material durable?

Yes, Cordura ripstop is renowned for its exceptional durability, resistance to abrasions, tears, and scuffs. This makes it a robust and long-lasting choice for shoe uppers, enhancing the lifespan of your sneakers.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser or cleaner can be applied sparingly, following the product's instructions carefully.

Shoes feel less supportive over time

Inspect the laces for wear and ensure they are tied securely for optimal fit. If the insole is worn, consider replacing it with a new, supportive insole for renewed comfort and arch support.

Water marks or dampness on the Cordura upper after exposure to moisture

While Cordura is water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof. Wipe off water promptly with a dry cloth. For prolonged exposure, ensure shoes dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent mildew or damage.

Care

To maintain the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 1000 Cordura:

  1. Cleaning the Cordura Ripstop: Wipe down the water-repellent ripstop areas with a damp cloth and mild soap.
