FAQs
What is ABZORB technology?
ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance cushioning technology designed to provide superior shock absorption and a responsive feel, reducing the impact on your feet.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 2010 Trainers are primarily designed as lifestyle and casual wear shoes. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact athletic activities like running.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the New Balance size chart for accurate measurements. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the provided UK sizing guide. These are unisex trainers, so sizes are generally consistent.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet conditions, as water can stain and damage the suede material. A suede protector spray can offer some resistance, but they are best kept dry.
What is the primary material used?
The primary material for this variant is suede, contributing to its premium look and feel.
What is the main design inspiration?
The design draws inspiration from 2000s-era New Balance fan favorites, particularly featuring a prominent, segmented ABZORB sole unit with updated proportions.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions.
Discomfort after first wear
New Balance trainers often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit.
Color transfer from suede
This can sometimes occur with new suede. If you notice color transfer, ensure the shoes are dry and consider using a suede protector spray. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks until this is no longer an issue.
