FAQs
What materials are used in these trainers?
These trainers are crafted with a mix of leather and textile for the upper, a breathable textile lining and insole, and a synthetic sole.
How should I clean my New Balance 327 Animal Print Trainers?
Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth for everyday cleaning. For tougher spots, use a mild shoe cleaner suitable for mixed materials. Always air dry them away from direct heat.
Do I need to treat them before wearing?
Yes, it is highly recommended to treat your trainers with a suitable protector designed for leather and textile materials before their first wear. This helps maintain their appearance and protects them from dirt and moisture.
Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?
The New Balance 327 Animal Print Trainers are designed primarily for casual and lifestyle wear, focusing on style and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-performance sports or running activities.
How do I ensure the best fit?
The trainers feature a reliable lace-up fastening, allowing you to adjust the tightness for a personalized and secure fit. Ensure you try them on with the type of socks you typically wear.
Will the animal print fade over time?
With proper care and pre-treatment using a protector, the animal print is designed to remain vibrant. Avoiding prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight and regularly cleaning them will help preserve the print's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lace-up fastening. Loosen the laces for a looser fit or tighten them for a more snug feel. Ensure your socks are of appropriate thickness.
Material appears dull or dirty quickly.
Ensure you applied a suitable protector before initial wear. Regularly wipe down the trainers with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a mild shoe cleaner appropriate for mixed materials.
Foot feels uncomfortable or sweaty.
The trainers feature a breathable textile lining and insole. Ensure you are wearing breathable socks. If discomfort persists, check your lacing for over-tightening or consider orthotic inserts if needed (though the synthetic sole offers inherent comfort).
Sole feels slippery.
Inspect the synthetic sole for any embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with a stiff brush and water to remove dirt that might be reducing traction. If the sole is heavily worn, the trainers may need to be replaced.

- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks on the leather or textile sections, use a mild cleaner designed for footwear and apply with a soft brush or cloth. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
