FAQs
Are New Balance 327 trainers suitable for running?
While inspired by vintage running shoes, the 327 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer. It is not recommended for professional athletic or long-distance running.
How do I clean the suede upper?
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a suede-safe eraser. Avoid soap and water.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The New Balance 327 generally fits true to size, but the wedge silhouette may feel slightly different at the heel compared to traditional flat sneakers.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No. Machine washing can permanently damage the suede material and the structure of the sole.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 327 is designed as a unisex model, suitable for anyone based on the UK sizing provided.
Troubleshooting
Suede surface shows signs of dust or light marks
Use a specialized suede cleaning brush or a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently buff the surface in one direction.
Stains on the suede material
Utilize a designated suede eraser to lift surface stains; do not use standard laundry detergent or water-heavy cleaning methods.
Soles appearing worn after heavy use
The lug outsole design is intended for casual wear; if you notice buildup in the lugs, use a soft plastic pick or stiff brush to clear debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your New Balance 327 trainers in top condition, start by applying a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before initial wear. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede material and cause discoloration. If the shoes get wet, air dry them away from direct heat sources like radiators. For daily maintenance, use a soft-bristle brush to remove loose dust and dirt. When it comes to sizing, ensure you check the UK size conversion carefully against your usual fit, as the structured wedge design may feel different compared to traditional performance running sneakers.
