FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 1000 series features advanced cushioning, they are primarily designed as trainers for casual wear and streetwear rather than dedicated long-distance performance running.
What does the ABZORB technology do?
ABZORB is a proprietary foam material that provides exceptional shock absorption and compression set properties, significantly reducing the impact felt during walking.
How should I clean the chunky sole?
The sole can be wiped down with a damp cloth or a soft brush and mild soap to maintain its appearance.
Are these trainers true to size?
The New Balance 1000 series generally fits true to standard UK sizing, but it is always recommended to reference the size guide to match your specific measurement.
Is the material waterproof?
The materials are designed for breathability, not waterproofing. It is best to avoid heavy rain or standing water.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or stains on the upper materials
Gently clean with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth; avoid putting them in a washing machine which can damage the structure.
Feeling of slipping or instability
Re-lace the shoes to ensure a secure lockdown across the midfoot and ensure the heel is properly seated in the heel cup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers come in a variety of UK adult sizes ranging from 6 to 12.5, ensure you have measured your foot correctly for the intended fit. To maintain the appearance and functionality of your New Balance 1000s:
- Keep them dry: Avoid excessive moisture exposure.
- Surface cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or damp cloth to remove surface dirt from the upper materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces to secure the fit across the midfoot without over-tightening, which can strain the eyelets.
