FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by 2000s running tech, the ABZORB 2000 is primarily categorized as a lifestyle trainer for casual, daily use.

How do I ensure the right fit?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent; however, ensure you select your correct UK adult size as provided in the product specifications.

Do the reflective details work in daylight?

Reflective details are designed specifically for low-light conditions to catch light sources, such as streetlights or vehicle headlights.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required for additional arch support.

What is the primary material used?

The construction features a mix of high-quality textiles and durable synthetic overlays designed for both structure and breathability.

How do I maintain the purple colorway?

Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or bleaching agents, which can cause color fading. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on upper

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; do not machine wash.

Sole losing traction

Check the rubber treads for debris or mud buildup and clear them using a brush.

Cushioning feeling firm

The ABZORB technology may require a short 'break-in' period of a few wears to soften to your specific gait.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Advanced hybrid cushioning system for superior comfort
  • Striking, modern aesthetic inspired by 2000s performance gear
  • High-durability rubber outsole suitable for daily use
  • Reflective elements for added safety during night walks

Cons

  • Design is highly experimental and may not appeal to minimalists
  • Colorways like Purple are bold and harder to pair with neutrals
  • Limited to lifestyle usage rather than high-intensity sport

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance ABZORB 2000 trainers remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deep cleaning, apply a mild detergent diluted with water using a clean cloth, taking care not to oversaturate the materials.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the cushioning components.
  3. Compatibility: These are standard UK adult-sized trainers. Ensure you verify your specific size against New Balance sizing charts to accommodate the specific fit of the ABZORB 2000 silhouette.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation over time.
