FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 327 is inspired by 1970s running heritage, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual walking and daily wear.

How do I clean the white leather parts?

You can clean the leather parts using a mild soap solution and a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Do these shoes run true to size?

The New Balance 327 typically fits true to size, but we recommend consulting the size guide for your specific UK size measurement.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the glue, suede, and leather materials. Stick to surface cleaning methods.

Is the sole removable?

The 327 comes with an internal insole; however, it is designed for the standard fit and support of the model.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede material

Use a specialized suede brush or a clean eraser to gently lift stains and dirt without damaging the texture.

Creasing on the leather upper

Creasing is a natural occurrence in leather footwear; use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the shape and minimize deep creases.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for daily wear
  • Stylish, versatile retro-inspired design
  • Durable suede and leather construction
  • Reliable traction provided by the lugged outsole

Cons

  • Not intended for high-performance athletic sports

  • Distinctive design may not appeal to those seeking a minimalist look

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, consider the following care tips:

  1. Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt from the suede portions using a soft brush. For the leather panels, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
  2. Moisture Prevention: Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can affect the leather and suede materials. If they become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the grey and blue colors from fading over time.
  4. Fit: These trainers are sized for adults; ensure you check your specific UK sizing to get the optimal fit for your foot shape.
