FAQs
What age group are the New Balance 327 Trainers for?
These trainers are designed for kids, with this specific model in a UK children's size 5.5.
How do I clean the mixed materials on these trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid submerging in water or using harsh cleaning agents. Air dry away from direct heat.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
Yes, they are suitable for light sports and active play due to their cushioning and grip. For high-intensity or specialized sports, specific athletic footwear might be recommended.
What is the main inspiration behind the 327 design?
The design is inspired by classic 1970s running shoe silhouettes, blending retro aesthetics with modern comfort features.
How can I ensure the best fit?
Measure your child's foot accurately and compare it to the New Balance sizing chart. Ensure there is a little room for growth but not so much that the shoe is loose.
What makes the midsole 'flared'?
The flared midsole refers to the wider base of the sole towards the heel, which provides extra cushioning and a distinctive, modern look.
Can these trainers be worn year-round?
Yes, their versatility and construction make them suitable for year-round wear, depending on climate and activity.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure the laces are tied using a secure knot. Consider using a double knot if the laces are particularly slippery or if the child is very active.
Shoes feel uncomfortable or tight
Check that the laces are not tied too tightly. Ensure the correct size has been purchased; consider trying a different size or width if discomfort persists.
Slight discoloration on fabric parts
Use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water to gently clean the affected area. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Outsole losing grip over time
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris, which can reduce traction. Gentle cleaning with a brush and water may help restore grip.
