FAQs
Is the New Balance 327 a running shoe?
No, while it is inspired by 1970s heritage running silhouettes, it is designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual, everyday use.
Does the leather upper need special treatment?
It is recommended to use a leather-specific conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
Are these shoes true to size?
The New Balance 327 generally fits true to size for most adults, though personal preference for toe-box room may vary.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality leather, providing a durable and premium finish.
Is the shoe gender-specific?
The model is listed for women; please ensure you check the size conversion if you are purchasing based on different sizing standards.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the midfoot
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be looser through the midfoot eyelets to accommodate your arch.
Visible creasing on the leather toe box
This is normal with leather footwear; using shoe trees when not in use can help minimize deep creases and maintain shape.
Outsole collecting small stones in the lugs
Use a blunt plastic tool to carefully pry stones out of the tread to maintain optimal traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 327 sneakers remain in optimal condition:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, the leather upper may take a few wears to fully soften to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away surface dust after each wear. For minor scuffs, a specialized leather cleaner or a soft brush with a mild soap solution is recommended.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-safe water repellent spray can help protect the material from unexpected rain.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack or fade.
- Insoles: The provided insoles are designed for comfort; however, they can be removed if you require personalized orthotics.
