FAQs
What makes the ABZORB sole unit special?
The ABZORB segmented sole unit is a signature feature that uses expanded proportions and advanced cushioning technology to provide superior shock absorption and a distinctive look, inspired by classic 2000s New Balance designs.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the ABZORB sole offers good cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes with targeted support and features are recommended.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. These trainers are listed by UK adult foot size. Consider trying them on if possible, or measure your foot length to compare with the chart.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The leather upper offers some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the leather and prolonged drying times.
What is the material of the trainers?
The primary upper material is leather, providing a premium look and feel.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
This guide focuses on the Black/Grey variant. Please check the product listing or New Balance’s official channels for availability of other colorways.
How should I store my New Balance 2010 trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using the original shoebox or a breathable shoe bag can help maintain their shape and protect them from dust.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
This is normal for new leather footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Discoloration on the leather
Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for black and grey leather. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Sole feels uneven initially
The segmented ABZORB sole may have a unique feel. Walk normally; the cushioning and support should become apparent with regular use.
