FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

While the New Balance 327 has a retro running shoe aesthetic, they are designed primarily for casual, everyday wear and lifestyle purposes. For serious running or sports, we recommend New Balance's performance-specific athletic footwear.

How do I determine my size?

The New Balance 327 Trainers generally fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the next half size up for a more comfortable fit, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks. You can also refer to New Balance's official sizing chart for precise measurements.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

Due to the suede and breathable synthetic materials, these trainers are not designed to be waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions can damage the suede and may lead to water seeping into the shoe. We recommend avoiding wet weather or using a protective spray.

What is the best way to clean the 'N' logo and outsole?

For the iconic 'N' logo and rubber outsole, a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap can effectively clean off dirt. Gently wipe the surfaces, then use a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue. Allow to air dry completely.

What makes the New Balance 327 design unique?

The 327 series stands out with its bold reinterpretation of 1970s New Balance designs. Key unique features include the exaggerated, angular flared outsole, the oversized 'N' logo on the lateral side, and a combination of retro-inspired materials and colors that create a distinct, fashion-forward silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper grime, use a suede eraser or cleaner following product instructions.

Trainers feel less comfortable after extended wear

Ensure your laces are tied correctly – not too tight or too loose. If discomfort persists, consider replacing the original insoles with after-market arch support inserts tailored to your needs. Allow trainers to air out between uses.

Unpleasant odor develops

Remove the insoles to air out the shoes. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the trainers overnight, then tap it out in the morning. Ensure socks are worn and changed regularly.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 327 Trainers, especially given their suede components:

  1. Spot Cleaning: For light dirt or dust, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently brush off particles. Always brush in one direction to avoid damaging the nap.
  2. For Stains: For stubborn spots on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and eraser. Follow the product's instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  3. Synthetic/Nylon Areas: For the synthetic and nylon parts of the upper, use a damp cloth with mild soap (like diluted dish soap) to wipe away dirt. Avoid saturating the material.
  4. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
  5. Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and textile footwear. This can help protect against spills and light moisture.
  6. Avoid Washing Machine: Do not put your trainers in a washing machine or dryer, as this can cause damage to the materials and construction.
