FAQs

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a specialized cushioning technology developed by New Balance that absorbs impact and provides a responsive feel, enhancing comfort and reducing stress on the feet.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 2010 trainers offer cushioning suitable for light jogging and everyday wear. For intense or long-distance running, dedicated running shoes may provide more specialized support and performance.

How do I clean the nubuck parts of the shoe?

Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt and then apply a specialized nubuck cleaner. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

What does the 'voluminous design' mean?

It refers to the shoe's silhouette, which has a slightly chunkier and more pronounced shape, characteristic of styles popular in the early 2000s, offering a distinct visual aesthetic.

Can these trainers be worn by men and women?

Yes, the New Balance 2010 trainers are designed as unisex footwear and are suitable for adults of any gender.

How do I check if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel snug without slipping, and there should be enough width to avoid pressure points.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, they may require a short break-in period. Try wearing thinner socks initially.

Discoloration of mesh

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

Reduced grip on outsole

Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with soap and water to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.

Stiff leather/nubuck areas

Use a leather conditioner or nubuck care product as recommended for the material to restore suppleness.
