Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 1890 trainers are designed for adult men who seek a blend of lifestyle aesthetics and performance-grade comfort in their daily footwear. By integrating the brand's signature ABZORB cushioning technology into a sleek, archival-inspired silhouette, these shoes provide superior impact absorption and all-day wearability. Please note that the narrower profile of this shoe may require users with wider feet to consider sizing options carefully for an optimal fit.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

While the 1890 uses technology from performance running silhouettes, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for daily use rather than high-mileage athletic training.

How do I ensure the correct size?

The 1890 has a narrower profile than standard lifestyle shoes. If you are between sizes, we recommend opting for the larger size.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather overlays and weaken the bonding agents. Spot cleaning by hand is the safest method.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from 'Mushroom' mesh reinforced with leather and synthetic overlays.

Where does the ABZORB technology come from?

The ABZORB technology in the 1890 is derived from the original 2010 sole unit used in the New Balance 2002 model.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness in the arch or side

Loosen the laces across the specific pressure point or switch to a thinner sock to accommodate the narrow profile.

Mesh upper accumulating dust or debris

Use a dry, soft brush to lightly flick away debris; avoid scrubbing aggressively to prevent fraying the mesh fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the appearance and functionality of your New Balance 1890 trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Initial Fit: Ensure the shoes feel snug but not tight across the midfoot. If you feel pressure points, consider using thinner socks or adjusting the lacing tension.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the mesh areas. For leather overlays, wipe gently with a damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh detergents.
  3. Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation or color fading.
  4. Maintenance: If the insoles become damp, remove them to air dry separately to prevent odors.
