FAQs

What makes the ABZORB cushioning special?

ABZORB is a New Balance technology that provides superior shock absorption and cushioning, helping to reduce impact forces on your feet and joints. The 2000 model features a combination of ABZORB and ABZORB SBS pods for enhanced comfort.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While inspired by running shoes, the New Balance 2000 are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and everyday comfort. They offer good cushioning for walking and standing, but may not provide the specific support or features required for intense running.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from Nylon, contributing to a lightweight feel and durability. Some variants might incorporate other materials like leather.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, which typically provides measurements in centimeters or inches that correspond to UK shoe sizes. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

The materials used are not inherently waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet surfaces is not recommended and may affect the material's condition.

What is the 'visible tech' mentioned in the description?

Visible tech refers to the design approach where the functional components of the shoe, such as the ABZORB cushioning pods, are made visible and integrated into the aesthetic design, highlighting the technology's performance benefits.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly snug, wearing them with thin socks for short periods may help them stretch. Consider alternative lacing techniques for pressure relief.

Cushioning feels stiff initially

The ABZORB cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.

Dirt or scuffs on the white/grey material

Use a non-abrasive cleaning eraser or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the affected areas. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous spot first.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: For nylon and leather components, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Midsole and Outsole: Clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks on the ABZORB pods, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and material integrity.
