These sneakers are crafted from a combination of suede, mesh, and fabric textiles.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by vintage running shoes, the 327 series is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for comfort and style, not for athletic performance.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Allow to air dry.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on and then adjusted for a comfortable fit. If still tight, consider if the size is correct or if insoles are affecting the fit.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a different material that offers more grip.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The high-traction outsole is designed for most surfaces. If experiencing slipperiness, ensure soles are clean and dry. Be cautious on extremely wet or polished surfaces.
