New Balance ABZORB 2000 Silver Metallic Faded Black
The New Balance ABZORB 2000 Silver Metallic Faded Black (U20003OZ) is the launch colorway, the one from the first campaign shots: a silver metallic mesh upper fading into black overlays, with a light grey ABZORB platform that makes the exposed pods pop. Pure early-2000s runner energy, straight from the archives.
The ABZORB 2000 is New Balance's boldest Y2K revival yet: a brand-new silhouette inspired by early-2000s running, built around a full-length ABZORB sole unit with visible ABZORB SBS pods. Chunky, sculpted and futuristic, it sits somewhere between the 2002R and a concept sneaker.
Full-length ABZORB + ABZORB SBS Pods
The midsole combines a full-length ABZORB compound with exposed ABZORB SBS pods at heel and forefoot, so every step is absorbed and returned. A segmented outsole with a Stability Web shank keeps the chunky platform stable, while the Ndurance rubber outsole handles daily mileage on pavement.
Metallic mesh upper with printed overlays and reflective details. Supportive heel counter. Segmented Ndurance rubber outsole. Heritage running technology in a sneaker made for the streets.
Who it's for
For collectors who want the original: the Silver Metallic ABZORB 2000 is the reference colorway and the most 'Y2K' of the range. Unisex sizing, runs true to size.
