FAQs

What year was the original New Balance 1000 released?

The original New Balance 1000 was released in 1999.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While they feature cushioning, the New Balance 1000 are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I clean the leather parts of the trainers?

Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. You can use a leather conditioner occasionally to keep the material in good condition.

What does ABZORB cushioning do?

ABZORB is a superior cushioning technology that absorbs impact and provides a responsive feel, enhancing comfort.

Is the sizing true to size?

Generally, New Balance trainers are true to size. However, individual fit can vary. Checking customer reviews or trying them on if possible is recommended.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in wet weather, especially due to the suede materials, which can be easily damaged by moisture.

What is the Stability Web midfoot shank?

The Stability Web is an insert that provides midfoot support and torsional rigidity, helping to control pronation and enhance stability.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent marks, try a suede eraser.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure laces are dry and not excessively worn. Consider replacing them if they are frayed.

Discomfort during initial wear

New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size.

Color transfer from suede

This is rare but can happen with new suede. Ensure the shoes are dry before wearing with light-colored socks or trousers, especially in damp conditions.

Care Instructions:

  • Suede Care: Use a soft brush to gently remove dry dirt from suede areas. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water directly on suede.
  • Leather Care: Clean leather parts with a slightly damp cloth. Condition periodically with a leather conditioner to maintain suppleness.
  • Sole Cleaning: Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve materials and color.
