New Balance 2000

The New Balance Abzorb 2000 is a new lifestyle sneaker that launched on June 12th, 2025 for $170. The debut colorway, “Blue Agate”, is inspired by the cushion tech’s original blue shade.

Images of the shoe were first shared by Gustavo Soares, a Sao Paulo-based stylist, in February 2025. The model has a chunky aesthetic comparable to that of the New Balance 9060, but has a futurist approach with forward-thinking materials.

See below for all our latest coverage surrounding the New Balance 2000; several colorways are expected to launch in 2025.
