FAQs

Are the New Balance 1890 trainers true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing, but because they feature a narrower silhouette, those with wider feet may consider sizing up.

Can I run in these sneakers?

While they are inspired by retro running shoes, they are designed for lifestyle wear and do not offer the support required for serious distance running.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a superior cushioning technology from New Balance that provides excellent shock absorption and compression set.

Are they machine washable?

No, it is recommended to clean them by hand to prevent damage to the synthetic overlays and foam midsole.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

The mesh components are breathable, meaning they are not waterproof; they are best suited for dry or light-weather conditions.

How long will the shoes last?

With proper rotation and care, the high-quality synthetic and rubber construction is built to withstand standard daily wear for a long period.

Troubleshooting

Material looks dusty or dull

Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic areas with a soft, dry cloth or a dedicated shoe cleaning brush.

Midsole feels less bouncy over time

This is common with long-term compression; ensure you are rotating your shoes to allow the foam to decompress between wears.

Outer sole shows signs of uneven wear

Check your gait or contact a podiatrist if wear is excessive, as this is typically related to walking patterns rather than the shoe quality.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent daily comfort due to ABZORB technology
  • Versatile, understated retro aesthetic
  • Lightweight construction suitable for all-day wear
  • Durable outsole provides consistent traction

Cons

  • Narrow profile may not suit wide-foot shapes
  • Not intended for high-intensity sports performance
  • Limited to lifestyle and casual use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 1890s maintain their appearance and structure, follow these guidelines:

  • Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the synthetic and mesh materials to adapt to your foot shape.
  • Cleaning: Remove loose dirt with a soft brush. Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth to spot-clean synthetic areas. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners.
  • Drying: Air dry the trainers at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can degrade the midsole cushioning and materials.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use a shoe tree if possible to maintain the sneaker's shape when not in use.
