FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, because the upper is made of suede, machine washing is not recommended as it may damage the material.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

There should be about a thumb's width of space between the end of the longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Are these good for wide feet?

Yes, the design includes a generous toe box and deep instep, which accommodates toddlers with wider or higher-volume feet.

Can these be worn outside?

Yes, they are designed for everyday wear, but avoid extremely muddy or wet conditions to protect the suede fabric.

What does the 327 NEW-B series mean?

This is a specific New Balance collection tailored with features like easy-fasten closures specifically for infant and toddler development.

Troubleshooting

Straps are not staying fastened

Check the hook-and-loop surface for debris or lint buildup and remove it to restore the adhesive grip.

Material looks dusty or faded

Use a suede brush or a clean eraser to gently lift the nap of the suede and remove surface dust.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, measure your toddler's feet while they are standing to account for natural spreading. The hook-and-loop straps should be pulled snug enough to keep the shoe secure but loose enough to prevent pressure on the top of the foot. For care, avoid machine washing these shoes due to the suede material. Instead, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush. If deeper cleaning is required, use a specialized suede cleaner and apply it sparingly with a clean, dry cloth. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink.
