Our take on the New Balance ABZORB 1890 M - Blue

The New Balance 1890 is a lifestyle sneaker built around ABZORB cushioning, a mesh upper and a rubber outsole. It sits in the chunky, retro-running lane New Balance has leaned into with the 9060 and 2002R, but with a lower, more everyday profile. The ABZORB foam gives it a softer, springier ride than the firm EVA on older 574-style models. It suits people who want a comfortable daily sneaker with visible tech and a Y2K look.

Questions and answers

Is the New Balance 1890 good for walking all day?
Yes. The ABZORB midsole is the main draw, and it cushions heel strikes well for errands, commutes and standing. It is heavier than a minimal sneaker, so some people notice the weight on very long days.
How does the 1890 compare with the 9060 or 2002R?
The 1890 has a lower, less exaggerated profile than the 9060 and a simpler layered upper than the 2002R. All three use ABZORB-family cushioning, so the ride is similar; the choice comes down to how chunky a silhouette you want.
Does the 1890 fit true to size?
Most people take their usual New Balance size. The mesh upper is fairly snug through the midfoot, so wide-footed wearers often go up a half size.
Can you run in the New Balance 1890?
It is a lifestyle shoe, not a running shoe. The ABZORB foam is comfortable for walking, but the upper and outsole are not built for mileage or speed work.
What is the upper made of?
Mesh with synthetic and suede-style overlays. The mesh keeps it breathable; the overlays add structure and the layered retro look.
How should you clean the 1890?
Spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap, and air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing, which can distort the layered overlays and the midsole.
