Product Information

Full details

The New Balance ABZORB 2000 Trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of 00s-inspired style and modern comfort for everyday wear and light training. Their key benefit is the advanced ABZORB cushioning system, which provides superior shock absorption and stability. A potential caveat is the minimalist upper design, which may not appeal to those preferring more traditional aesthetics. These trainers feature a suede and mesh upper, a full-length ABZORB midsole, ABZORB SBS pods, enhanced midfoot stability with a Stability Web shank, and a durable rubber outsole. The retro silhouette is inspired by 70s designs, offering a unique look with sculpted detailing.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

The ABZORB 2000 trainers are designed for everyday wear and light training. They offer good cushioning but may not provide the specialized support and structure required for long-distance running like marathons.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the New Balance size chart. These trainers are available in standard width (D) and unisex sizing. Measure your foot length and compare it with the chart for the best fit.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the suede, mesh, and internal cushioning technologies. Hand clean using a damp cloth and appropriate cleaners.

What is the main benefit of ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary cushioning technology that absorbs shock and provides a responsive feel, helping to reduce impact on your feet and joints.

How does the Stability Web shank help?

The Stability Web shank is a TPU component in the midsole that provides midfoot support and torsional rigidity, helping to maintain stability and prevent unwanted twisting of the foot.

What inspired the design of the ABZORB 2000?

The design takes inspiration from notable 2000s running-inspired classics and incorporates a retro silhouette reminiscent of 70s footwear, blending vintage aesthetics with modern visible tech.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers are not waterproof. The mesh and suede materials offer breathability but are not designed to repel water. Consider using a waterproofing spray for added protection.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing on first wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB cushioning may become less effective after extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if performance significantly degrades. Ensure the shoes are not used for activities beyond their intended light training purpose.

Suede material showing stains or dirt

Address stains promptly with a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Protect the shoes with a suede protector spray before wearing them in potentially wet conditions.

Traction seems poor

Check the rubber outsole for embedded debris like small stones or mud. Clean the tread thoroughly. Ensure the outsole is not excessively worn down, which may indicate the shoes need replacement.

  • Durable construction with a combination of suede, mesh, and rubber outsole.
  • Comfortable for extended wear.

Cons

  • Minimalist upper design might not suit all style preferences.
  • Primarily designed for light training; may not offer sufficient support for intense athletic activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no specific setup. They are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit comfortably before first use.

Compatibility: The New Balance ABZORB 2000 Trainers are designed for unisex adult use. They are suitable for standard width (D) feet. Consult the New Balance size chart for accurate sizing before purchasing. They are versatile for casual outfits and light athletic wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For the suede and mesh upper, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Ensure no debris is trapped in the outsole tread.
  3. Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately if needed. Allow all parts to air dry completely away from direct heat.
