FAQs

Are the New Balance 327 trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 327 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer comfort for walking and daily activities, they do not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for serious running.

How do I maintain the suede material on the trainers?

To maintain the suede, use a suede brush regularly to remove dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and always follow the product's instructions. It's best to avoid excessive moisture on suede areas.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear these trainers in wet weather, especially if it is heavy rain, as the suede material can be damaged by excessive moisture and may stain. They are best suited for dry conditions.

What does 'Phantom Black' refer to?

'Phantom Black' refers to the specific deep black colour of the trainers, providing a sleek and versatile aesthetic.

Are these trainers available in other colours?

Yes, the New Balance 327 series is available in various colourways, though this specific guide focuses on the Phantom Black model.

What is the sizing like for the 327 series?

The sizing is generally considered standard for New Balance trainers. However, it is always recommended to check the brand's sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible, especially given the unisex fit.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For persistent stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, try wearing them with thinner socks or allow a short break-in period. For persistent tightness, consider a shoe stretcher.

Laces are fraying or worn.

Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and material. You can find replacement laces at most shoe stores or online retailers.

Sole feels stiff.

New shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure they are stored properly to avoid material hardening.
