In a world full of direct-to-consumer retail sales, it’s always nice to see the major sneaker brands show love to their retail partners. Adding some variety to one of last year’s favorite new silhouettes, New Balance is dropping a new two-pack of the ABZORB 2000 exclusively through Foot Locker.
The New Balance 2000 Foot Locker Exclusive Pack gives the modern lifestyle runner a pair of subtle, easily wearable color options, one in two shades of dark blue with silver accents, and the other in creamy tan tones with silver accents and bubble gum pink hits in the midsole. The two colorways will only be sold through Foot Locker, but unlike a traditional collab, there is no co-branding anywhere on the pairs.

On the Faded Blue pair, dark industrial blue mesh covers most of the upper, while silver support panels add blue bird accents to match the bright blue ABZORB pods running across the entire midsole. The Timberwolf colorway features the same cream color on the mesh and synthetic supports, adding silver reflective accents for a bit of contrast and double bubble pink ABZORB pods that draw the eye straight to the midsole.
The New Balance 2000 Foot Locker Exclusive Pack will be released February 16, 2026 through Foot Locker in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $170. For all the latest New Balance news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
