FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 1890 is designed as a lifestyle trainer for everyday wear rather than a specialized high-performance running shoe.

What does the ABZORB technology do?

ABZORB is a proprietary foam material that provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption.

Is this a unisex model?

Yes, the 1890 series is designed as a unisex product to provide a consistent fit for all.

How should I clean the upper?

Does the shoe provide good arch support?

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly tight initially

The interior padding may take a few wears to break in; try wearing thinner socks for the first few sessions.

Visible scuffs on the apron upper

Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft cloth with a very small amount of leather cleaner for the specific material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 1890 trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple maintenance steps:

  1. Initial Fit: Ensure you select your standard UK sizing, as the 1890 series is designed to be true to size.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the upper. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  3. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the heel counter.
