FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by 70s runners, the 327 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer, not for high-intensity athletic running.

How should I clean the suede panels?

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid water and standard detergents as they can stain or ruin suede.

Is the 327 true to size?

The New Balance 327 generally fits true to size for most wearers, but the adjustable lacing system allows for a personalized fit.

Can I wear these for hiking?

The trail-inspired outsole provides decent traction, but these are casual fashion shoes and are not designed for technical hiking trails.

What is the primary material used?

The upper consists of a mix of durable suede and breathable mesh for a balance of longevity and comfort.

Does the 327 offer good arch support?

The EVA midsole provides decent, soft cushioning suitable for general daily walking, though it is not a medically orthopedic shoe.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty maintaining suede cleanliness

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

Laces coming untied frequently

Ensure you are using a double knot or a secure heel-lock lacing technique for a tighter, more stable fit.

Debris stuck in the lug outsole

Use a blunt tool or a stiff-bristled brush to clear out pebbles or dirt from the crevices of the wraparound outsole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent all-day comfort due to EVA cushioning
  • Breathable design keeps feet cool
  • Iconic, trendy retro aesthetic
  • Durable suede construction

Cons

  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance
  • Suede requires more careful maintenance than synthetic materials
  • Outsole design can collect debris due to deep lugs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a perfect fit, use the adjustable lace closure to tighten or loosen the trainer according to your foot's width. Because these shoes feature suede components, it is recommended to use a suede-specific brush to remove surface dust regularly. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture and compromise the materials. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the colors.
