FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running sports?
The New Balance 327 for kids is primarily designed for all-day comfort and casual wear, drawing inspiration from classic running shoes. While comfortable for general activity, they are not specialized performance footwear for intensive running sports.
How do I clean the synthetic suede parts?
For synthetic suede, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth and a small amount of mild shoe cleaning solution. Allow to air dry completely.
Can my child wear these in wet weather?
The shoes feature synthetic suede and nylon, which offer some resistance to light moisture. However, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain should be avoided to protect the materials and inner comfort.
What is the bungee closure system?
The bungee closure system replaces traditional laces with an elastic cord and toggle, allowing for quick and easy adjustments. This makes the shoes simple for children to put on and take off by themselves, providing a secure fit.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
It's recommended to measure your child's foot length and compare it to the New Balance kids' size chart. Always ensure there's a little room for growth at the toe, but not so much that the shoe slips off.
Are the insoles removable?
Most New Balance kids' shoes feature removable insoles. This allows for easy cleaning, airing out, or the insertion of custom orthotics if needed. Gently check if they can be lifted out.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the bungee closure system. Pull the bungee tighter for a more secure fit or loosen it for more room. Ensure socks are of appropriate thickness.
Shoes get dirty easily.
The synthetic suede and nylon blend can attract dirt. Regularly clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized footwear cleaning product for synthetic materials and suede.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Check if moisture is trapped between the insole and the shoe's interior. Remove the insole, clean and dry both surfaces, then reinsert. If the issue persists, inspect the outsole for embedded debris.
Outsole grip seems reduced.
Clean the `lugged outsole` thoroughly to remove any dirt, mud, or small stones that may have accumulated in the tread, which can reduce traction. A stiff brush can be effective.
