FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The ABZORB 2010 is designed as a lifestyle trainer for comfort and style, not for high-impact athletic activities like running. For running, consider New Balance's dedicated running shoe lines.

How do I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?

Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. If needed, use a small amount of mild soap and water, then wipe clean with a fresh damp cloth. Ensure they air dry completely.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary technology that provides a unique combination of cushioning and compression resistance, helping to absorb impact and provide a comfortable feel.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. The delicate materials, especially suede, can be damaged by the washing machine cycle. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Generally, New Balance trainers are known to run true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to check customer reviews or consult size charts for specific fit information.

Are the reflective accents effective in the dark?

Yes, the reflective accents are designed to catch light and increase visibility in low-light conditions, adding a practical safety feature for evening wear.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the texture and remove surface dirt. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully.

Laces are dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild detergent and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Insole feels uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider purchasing aftermarket insoles designed for added support or cushioning.

Reduced cushioning over time

The ABZORB cushioning is designed for durability, but performance may gradually decrease with extensive use. For significantly reduced cushioning, it may be time to consider replacement.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your ABZORB 2010 trainers:

  3. Soles: Clean the rubber and TPU sole components with a damp cloth.
  4. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or box to protect them from dust and sunlight.
