FAQs

What materials are used in the New Balance 327 Casablanca?

The sneaker features a combination of perforated white leather, textile overlays with Casablanca's jacquard monogram, and beige leather accents, all on a rubber outsole.

Is this sneaker suitable for athletic performance?

While the 327 model has a sporty silhouette and a grippy outsole, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, not for rigorous athletic training.

How does the sizing run for the 327 model?

The 327 generally runs true to size for most people. However, if you have wider feet, you might consider trying them on or looking for reviews specific to wide-fit options, though this collaboration is typically offered in standard width.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

The sneakers can handle light moisture, but they are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather and textile materials.

What does the 'Munsell White Green' name refer to?

This likely refers to the color palette. 'Munsell' relates to a color system, and 'White Green' indicates the primary colors used in the design.

Where can I find other sizes or colorways?

Availability of specific sizes and colorways can vary. Check the official New Balance website, authorized retailers, and reputable resale platforms for other options. The product information indicates sibling variants in different sizes and colors.

What is the release date and original retail price?

The New Balance 327 Casablanca was released on February 27th, 2021, and originally retailed for $130 USD.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from the sole

This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Try walking on them for a bit to break them in. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder applied to the insole might help, or check for any debris trapped in the sole pattern.

Leather appears creased or scuffed

Minor creasing is normal with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or cleaner appropriate for white leather to gently buff out the mark. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Color transfer from the green outsole

Ensure the outsole is clean and dry before wearing, especially in wet conditions. If color transfer occurs on light-colored socks, wash the affected sock immediately. For persistent transfer, consult specialist shoe care advice.

Uneven fit

Ensure you are wearing the correct size and type of socks. If the issue persists, try adjusting the laces to provide more or less pressure in specific areas. Break-in time can also affect fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and appearance of your sneakers:

  1. Cleaning Leather: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and smudges from the leather parts. For stubborn marks, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
  2. Cleaning Textiles: For textile overlays and monograms, gently brush off dry dirt. If necessary, use a fabric cleaner and a soft brush, then wipe with a damp cloth.
  3. Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush to remove dirt and restore its appearance.
  4. Drying: Allow the sneakers to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  5. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and damage.
