FAQs

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance technology that provides a superior blend of cushioning and compression set resistance, helping you go the distance. It absorbs impact and disperses shock effectively.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The ABZORB 2000 is designed with a focus on retro-inspired style and cushioning for everyday comfort. While it offers good shock absorption, it is not specifically engineered as a high-performance marathon running shoe. For marathon running, specialized racing footwear is recommended.

How do I best care for the mesh upper?

For the mesh upper, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove dirt. Avoid excessive scrubbing or soaking, as this can damage the delicate mesh fibers.

Can these trainers be worn by both men and women?

Yes, the New Balance 2000 trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for adults of any gender.

What does 'visible tech' refer to in the description?

'Visible tech' refers to the design aesthetic where the cushioning technology, like the ABZORB SBS pods, is made a prominent visual element of the shoe's design, showcasing its performance features.

What is the material of the outsole?

The outsole is made of rubber, providing durable traction and stability on various surfaces.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to help preserve the materials and color over time.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off or uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the fit is still tight or loose after a few wears, consider if the size is correct for your foot shape. Trying on different sizes may be necessary before purchase.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB cushioning is designed for durability, but like all cushioning, it will naturally compress over extended use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended purpose (e.g., extreme sports).

Material scuffs or shows wear

Minor scuffs can often be addressed with appropriate shoe cleaners for the specific materials (mesh, synthetic overlays). For significant wear, consider the intensity of use and if the shoes are appropriate for the activity.

Pros and Cons

  • Unique, eye-catching design inspired by 2000s running shoes.
  • Durable construction with a robust rubber outsole.
  • Breathable mesh upper for comfort.
  • Reflective details enhance safety in low light.

Cons

  • May require a break-in period for maximum comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. It is recommended to try them on indoors to ensure a comfortable fit before extensive use.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult use, these unisex trainers are designed for casual wear, walking, and light training activities. They are compatible with standard sock wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove loose dirt. For mesh areas, a slightly damp cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or soaking the shoes.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Wipe with a damp cloth. Stubborn dirt can be gently scrubbed with a soft brush and mild soap, then wiped clean.
  3. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material integrity and color.
