FAQs
Are the New Balance 327 trainers suitable for running?
No, the New Balance 327 trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. They are not built for high-impact athletic activities like running and may not provide adequate support or cushioning for such purposes.
How do I clean the suede material?
Gently brush off loose dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a slightly damp cloth. Always allow the trainers to air dry naturally, away from heat sources.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and consider using a suede protector spray for water resistance.
What is the main design inspiration for the 327 series?
The 327 series draws inspiration from New Balance's heritage running models from the 1970s, blending classic design elements with a modern aesthetic.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is strongly advised not to put suede trainers in a washing machine, as this can damage the material, shape, and colour of the shoes.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a small amount of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The trainers should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage when walking.
What other colours are available in the 327 series?
The 327 series is available in a variety of colourways, including grey and other shades, often with different material combinations. Please check the product listings for specific availability.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, spot clean with a specialized suede cleaner and a slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
Trainers feel too tight
Suede can stretch slightly over time. Wear them with thicker socks around the house for a short period. If still uncomfortable, consider a larger size or professional stretching services.
Colour transfer onto socks
This can sometimes happen with dark-dyed suede. Wear darker socks initially or consider using a colour-fixing spray designed for suede. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
