FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The New Balance Abzorb 2000 generally follows standard sizing, but it is recommended to reference the UK sizing guide for the most accurate fit.

Can I use these for running?

While inspired by classic running shoes, these are primarily designed for lifestyle and everyday comfort rather than high-performance athletic training.

How do I choose between leather and polyester versions?

Leather offers a more premium, structured look that can be easier to wipe clean, while polyester or nylon provides a lighter, more breathable experience.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are designed to be removable if you need to use custom orthotics.

What is the primary difference between ABZORB and ABZORB SBS?

Standard ABZORB is focused on impact absorption, while ABZORB SBS is a specialized density used to provide consistent stability and durability.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper material

Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the structure and prevent deep, permanent creases.

Surface dirt accumulation

For polyester or nylon, use a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub away debris before wiping with a damp cloth.

Sole performance feels stiff

New trainers may require a short 'break-in' period of 3-5 days to allow the cushioning system to adapt to your foot strike.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior impact absorption due to dual-ABZORB technology
  • Stylish retro-inspired design that pairs well with modern streetwear
  • Available in a wide range of sizes and material finishes
  • Balanced stability for all-day comfort

Cons

  • Chunky design might feel too bold for minimalists
  • Care requirements vary significantly based on material choice (e.g., leather vs. polyester)
  • Limited to a specific Black and Pink color scheme

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are available in materials ranging from leather to polyester and nylon, initial care depends on your specific model. To keep your pair looking new, wipe down polyester surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Leather models should be treated with a suitable leather cleaner and conditioner to prevent cracking. Always ensure your trainers are completely dry after cleaning before wearing them again. To maintain the integrity of the ABZORB cushioning, avoid high-heat drying methods such as radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause adhesives to degrade.
