FAQs
What is ABZORB technology?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance technology designed to provide optimal shock absorption and a responsive feel, minimizing impact on the feet and joints.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed for general wear and light athletic activities. For long-distance running like marathons, specialized running shoes with targeted support and cushioning are recommended.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is constructed with a combination of breathable mesh and printed synthetic overlays for durability and style.
How do I know if I have the right size?
It is recommended to check the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. If possible, try them on to ensure a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet surfaces to maintain the shoe's condition and comfort.
What is the difference between ABZORB cushioning and ABZORB SBS pods?
ABZORB cushioning refers to the general shock absorption properties throughout the sole. ABZORB SBS pods are specific, enhanced cushioning units strategically placed for targeted comfort and support.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The product information provided specifies a Grey colorway. Availability of other colors may vary by retailer and season.
Troubleshooting
Inconsistent fit
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consult the New Balance size chart or try on in-store if possible, as fit can vary between models.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears for the cushioning to adapt to your foot shape.
Material scuffing or damage
Avoid abrasive surfaces and be mindful of potential snags. Clean gently as per care instructions.
Reduced cushioning over time
While ABZORB is durable, performance may slightly decrease after extensive use. Consider replacing after significant mileage or wear.
