New Balance continues to tap into its retro-tech roots with the upcoming release of the Abzorb 2000 in “Rose Sugar Monarch Burgundy,” arriving this fall as part of its progressive new silhouette. Designed to reimagine early-2000s cushioning through a futuristic lens, the model blends heritage DNA with expressive, sculptural detailing.
At its core, the shoe features a full-length ABZORB sole unit, fused with ABZORB SBS pods in the heel and forefoot for maximum energy absorption and return. A sculpted, segmented midsole with a visible Stability Web shank adds structure and stability underfoot, while a mesh upper and screen-printed overlays deliver a streamlined, tech-forward aesthetic. Glossy plastics, translucent finishes, and rounded paneling lend the silhouette a fluid, modern edge — pushing New Balance’s design language into bold, future-facing territory.
The rosy colorway brings a soft gradient effect: the one-piece mesh upper transitions from a deep pink near the sole to a creamy center, wrapped in printed overlays with pale, tech-inspired linework. A metallic silver “N” logo, outlined in pink and white, anchors the midfoot, with matching silver accents on the tongue and heel. The midsole gleams with a rose-gold ABZORB treatment, layered over burgundy underlays and stabilized by a silver TPU shank. A black-and-grey rubber outsole rounds out the look with functional grip and tonal contrast.
Both nostalgic and forward-thinking, the Abzorb 2000 is a standout addition to New Balance’s experimental archive — merging retro-performance cues with next-gen comfort and visual identity.
