New Balance ABZORB 2010 Cordura Shadow Grey

The New Balance ABZORB 2010 Cordura "Shadow Grey" swaps the model's usual mesh inlays for Cordura fabric panels. That change adds resistance to abrasion, tears and scuffs without adding weight. Layered suede overlays build structure across the upper, and a tonal grey finish carries over both materials for a muted look.

Underfoot, the ABZORB midsole provides cushioning and compression resistance, while a grippy rubber outsole handles city streets and tougher surfaces. Its chunky framework draws on New Balance running heritage, with lines that nod to the 990 and 993. As a lifestyle trainer, the design suits commuting and off duty wear, and the neutral shade works with straight denim or relaxed cargos. Of the three Cordura colourways, this grey is the one to reach for on a daily rotation.
