FAQs
Are New Balance 327 trainers true to size?
New Balance 327 trainers generally run true to size for most users. However, fit can vary slightly depending on individual foot shape. It's recommended to consult the New Balance size guide if you're unsure.
Can I use these trainers for running or sports?
While inspired by running silhouettes, the New Balance 327 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance running or intense sports activities. Their construction provides excellent cushioning for daily use but not the specialized support needed for athletic training.
How often should I clean my 327 trainers?
Cleaning frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions they are exposed to. For best results, clean them regularly to prevent dirt buildup, especially the suede areas. Spot clean as needed, and perform a more thorough cleaning every few weeks or months.
Is the suede material waterproof?
The suede material on the New Balance 327 trainers is generally not waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or moisture can stain or damage the suede. It's recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede to add a layer of protection.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store your New Balance 327 trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees or stuffing them with acid-free paper can help maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture, especially after cleaning or wear.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, it is generally not recommended to put New Balance 327 trainers, especially those with suede components, in a washing machine. Machine washing can damage the materials, alter the shape, and potentially cause colors to bleed. Always follow the specific care instructions for cleaning by hand.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or matted.
Gently brush the suede surface with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and restore its texture.
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing to find a more comfortable and secure fit. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to allow for a break-in period.
Sole loses traction or grip.
Check the sole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the sole if dirt or small stones are embedded. If wear is significant, consider professional resoling if available, though for trainers, this is less common.
Unpleasant odor develops.
Allow trainers to air out after each use. Remove insoles periodically to clean and air dry. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use.
