After much build-up, the sold out instantly on its debut! Taking cues from 2000s running shoes while adding a futuristic flair, it certainly had all the makings of a hit. Though only halfway through 2025, could this be the best new silhouette? The inaugural colourway, ‘Agate Blue’, drew its inspiration from the ABZORB cushioning, which was originally available in blue. Now, after coming out of the gates magma-hot, additional colourways are surfacing.

The ‘Black/Grey’ iteration presents as a more muted counterpart to the eye-catching ‘Agate Blue’ – but keeping true to the heart of the design, the full-length ABZORB pods maintain their traditional blue hue. The other upcoming colourway is a more airy shade with hits of silver and light blue. The white midsole and grey ABZORB pods create a crisp vibe, perfect for hitting the streets on a sunny day.

These two New Balance ABZORB 2000s are landing on July 10 via the usual NB channels.
