FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance 1000 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle use, featuring ABZORB cushioning for comfort. They are not optimized for high-performance, long-distance running like dedicated running shoes.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided UK or international size conversions. Trying them on in-store if possible is also advised.

What is the main benefit of the Stability Web shank?

The Stability Web shank provides crucial support through the midfoot, enhancing stability and helping to prevent the shoe from twisting excessively. This contributes to a more secure and comfortable feel during wear.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method to maintain the integrity of the materials and construction.

What does 'Y2K icon' refer to in the product description?

'Y2K icon' refers to the design aesthetic popular around the year 2000, characterized by futuristic, tech-inspired, and often bold elements, which this shoe revives.

Are these trainers available in other colors?

Yes, the New Balance 1000 series is available in various colorways, often featuring combinations of black with secondary colors like green, pink, or grey, depending on the specific release.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on soles

Ensure proper fit. If the issue persists, consider your gait and walking pattern. Rotate with other footwear if used for extensive daily wear.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort continues, check if the size is correct or if the lacing needs adjustment for better support.

Loss of cushioning effectiveness

ABZORB cushioning may naturally diminish over extended use. For light wear, this takes considerable time. Consider replacing if significant loss of comfort is experienced.

Color transfer from upper to socks

This can occasionally happen with new, dark-colored footwear. It is recommended to wear dark socks initially. Gentle cleaning of the interior may help reduce excess dye.

Care Instructions:
