FAQs
Are New Balance 327 shoes good for running?
No, the New Balance 327 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear shoe, drawing inspiration from vintage running aesthetics. While comfortable for walking and everyday activities, it lacks the specialized support and cushioning required for high-performance running.
How do I clean the green suede on my 327s?
For routine cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush or a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede eraser for dry marks or a specialized suede cleaner for liquid spills. Always follow the cleaner's instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using water directly on suede.
Do the New Balance 327s run true to size?
Generally, the New Balance 327 is considered to run true to size for most individuals. However, fit can vary slightly depending on individual foot shape. If unsure, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size guide.
Can I wear my New Balance 327s in the rain?
It is generally not recommended to wear your suede New Balance 327s in heavy rain or wet conditions. Suede can be easily damaged, stained, and its texture altered by water. Using a good quality suede protector spray can offer some resistance, but it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
What type of outfits pair well with the green New Balance 327?
The green New Balance 327 is highly versatile for casual and smart-casual outfits. It pairs well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and even casual dresses or skirts. Its retro-modern design makes it a great accent piece for minimalist or streetwear looks. The `Green` color offers a distinct touch, complementing earthy tones, blues, greys, and black.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
New Balance offers various widths for some models, but the 327 is typically available in a standard (D) width. While some find them comfortable, individuals with significantly wide feet might find them a bit snug. It's always best to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material. Brush in one direction for a uniform look. For stubborn areas, a suede eraser can help.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
The shoes may need a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially. Ensure you have the correct size; New Balance 327 generally runs true to size, but individual foot shapes vary.
Visible dirt or stains on the green suede.
For fresh dirt, use a suede eraser. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth, then use a suede cleaner specifically designed for colored suede. Always test cleaners on a hidden area first.
Shoes are squeaking when I walk.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture or friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing the insole, dusting a little talcum powder inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. If the squeak persists, check the outsole for any loose parts.

Care & Maintenance
The suede material on your New Balance 327 requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity. Follow these guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a specialized suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the surface. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a suede eraser to gently rub away the stain. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically. This helps repel water and stains.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent color fading and material degradation. Avoid crushing them to preserve their shape.
- Avoid Water: Suede is particularly sensitive to water. Try to avoid wearing your shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get soaked, allow them to dry completely before cleaning.
