Introducing the New Balance 2000
The New Balance 2000, released in the late 1990s, was created as a high-performance running shoe that combined advanced technology with refined aesthetics.
Built for serious athletes, it featured ABZORB cushioning in the midsole for superior shock absorption and stability, paired with a lightweight yet supportive upper made from mesh and premium suede or synthetic materials. Its layered design emphasised both functionality and sleek style, providing structure without compromising breathability.
While rooted in performance, the 2000 also found a following in lifestyle circles thanks to its understated, versatile look, establishing itself as a model that bridged the gap between technical running innovation and everyday wear.
