New Balance ABZORB 2000 Trainers - Blue/Silver - UK 9.5

While they are loaded with early '00s running charm and cushioning technology, the ABZORB 2000 are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers. They provide excellent comfort for daily wear and light activities, but are not optimized for high-performance running.

For best results, gently clean the mesh and synthetic overlays with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Air dry them away from direct heat.

ABZORB is a superior blend of foam cushioning and compression set, providing optimal shock absorption and energy return. The ABZORB SBS pods specifically enhance segmented shock-absorbent comfort throughout the progressive midsole unit.

New Balance trainers generally run true to size for most individuals. We recommend ordering your usual shoe size. If you are unsure, you can refer to a New Balance sizing guide for exact measurements.

Yes, the synthetic 'Silver Metallic' and 'Castlerock' overlays are designed with reflective qualities to enhance visibility in low-light conditions, adding both style and a practical element.

The ABZORB 2000 trainers are not waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions is not recommended as it can affect the materials and comfort.

The durable rubber outsole provides reliable traction and grip on various surfaces, enhancing stability and ensuring longer wear for your trainers.

Ensure your trainers are properly laced, not too tight or too loose. Consider using different socks to adjust the fit. Over time, cushioning can compress, so rotating with other footwear can prolong their comfort life.

Regularly wipe down the mesh and synthetic surfaces after each wear with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a small amount of mild soap. Prompt cleaning prevents dirt from setting in.

This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped within the sole or between the insole and the shoe. Remove the insoles and allow both the insoles and the trainers to air dry completely. If the squeaking persists, it might indicate wear on the rubber outsole.
