FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 327 trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact athletic activities like running. For running, consider shoes specifically designed for that purpose.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a suede cleaner can be used sparingly, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet conditions, as moisture can damage the material and cause discoloration. Consider using a suede protector spray for water resistance.
What does 'Unisex' mean for sizing?
Unisex sizing means the shoes are designed to fit both men and women. Refer to the UK adult foot size guide for accurate measurement. Generally, women may need to size down from their typical women's size.
How often should I reapply suede protector?
It is recommended to reapply suede protector every few months, or more frequently if the shoes have been exposed to moisture or heavy wear.
What is the main difference between the Black and Grey colourways?
The primary difference is the color of the suede and accents. Both typically share the same iconic silhouette and construction, offering the same comfort and style benefits.
Are these trainers true to size?
The New Balance 327 trainers are generally considered true to size for most individuals. However, foot shape can vary, so checking the specific size guide and trying them on if possible is always recommended.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Laces are worn or damaged
Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length. You can find replacements at most shoe repair shops or online retailers.
Foot discomfort
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing to find a more comfortable fit. Consider using insoles for additional cushioning if needed.
Discoloration from water or stains
Address stains immediately with appropriate suede cleaning methods. Prevention with a protector spray is the best approach.
