FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While inspired by 70s running shoes, the 327W is designed for lifestyle and casual wear, not for athletic training or long-distance running.
How do I clean the suede material?
Clean with a dry, soft-bristled brush. Avoid soaking the suede in water, as this can alter its texture and appearance.
Is the sizing gender-neutral?
Yes, the 327W is a unisex model, and sizing is based on standard UK adult shoe measurements.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede materials and the integrity of the adhesive used in the construction. Always clean by hand.
Does the shoe provide arch support?
It offers standard everyday comfort, but if you require specific orthotic support, you may wish to replace the stock insole with a custom insert.
Troubleshooting
Surface scuffs on suede
Use a suede eraser or a soft brush to gently buff out the scuff mark in the direction of the nap.
Difficulty putting on the shoe
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before entry; the tongue construction is designed for a secure, snug fit.
Outsole debris collection
The lugged design can pick up small stones; periodically check the outsole and dislodge debris with a blunt tool if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 327W trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: These trainers fit standard adult sizing; ensure you select your correct UK size for the best fit.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust from the suede. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and allow to air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the grey and beige colorways from fading over time.
- Protection: Consider applying a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before initial wear to guard against minor spills.
