Three Under-the-Radar New Balance Sneakers You’ll Be Seeing Everywhere Soon

New Balance has been dropping absolute fire for a good few years. We've seen classics like the 2002R, 1906, and the 1960 cement their place as everyday staples. But hold on, a new wave of trainers is coming through: the 2000, 204L, and the 2010. These three new silhouettes tick all the boxes for that perfect summer trainer, and they're ready to shake up your regular rotation, while promising the familiar comfort we all expect from New Balance.

Let’s get into the nitty gritty and a quick heads up; for all the latest from the world of trainers and more, you'll want to get The Sole Supplier app downloaded pronto.

Celebrities like Loyle Carner, Freddie Gibbs, and Sainte have been rocking the NB ABZORB 2000, and when you hold them, you understand why. While it shares a name with the original New Balance 2000 from the early 2000s, the ABZORB 2000 offers a modern update, pulling design elements from the recent 9060 model. The trainer features a textile mesh upper with neat overlay panels stretching from the heel to the front. As always, the prominent "N" logo sits clearly at the midfoot, and the podular style midsole houses New Balance's signature ABZORB cushioning for top tier comfort. The NB ABZORB 2000 comes in ideal summer shades like the Still Water and Grey Blue, with more colours like the juicy Dragon Berry on the horizon.

Flat profile trainers are everywhere you look, aligning with the fashion crowd's move towards more understated styles. The 204L presents a low profile option, with soles sitting very close to the ground, which firmly places it among the flatter trainer styles coming out in 2025. At first glance, you'll spot the similarities between 204L and the Miu Miu x New Balance 530SL trainers. However, what sets these apart is, unlike the extortionate price tags of the 530SLs, these new trainers will retail for an approachable £120. We're keen on the earthy tones of the OG pair releasing later this month. This upcoming Mushroom Arid Stone pair will feature khaki/tan suede across the multi layered upper. The low to the ground sole unit matches this earthy tone, with black rubber underneath. We expect these to go down particularly well with women looking for a subtle, refined approach to their footwear.

If you're not looking to break the bank on some NB 990s, then this silhouette is spot on. Drawing inspiration from 2000s running shoe technology, the NB 2010 features a diamond knit mesh underlay with soft, hairy pigskin suede overlays, reminiscent of 99X and 990X styles for a retro future look. A noticeable "N" stands out on the lateral and medial sidewalls, complementing the New Balance branding on the tongue. The substantial ABZORB midsole includes ABZORB SBS in the forefoot and heel, similar to the 2000s. Priced at around £150, the NB 2010 offers a solid alternative to the 1906s and the 1960s, making it a clever swap for comfort first trainer fans who want something a bit different but equally reliable. Available in earthy shades like the Grey Days Arid Stone Raincloud and Dockside Indigo, plenty of new colourways are dropping soon.
