FAQs

Are the New Balance 327 suitable for running?

The New Balance 327 is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for everyday comfort and style. While they offer good support for walking and casual activities, they are not engineered for high-impact running and may lack the specific cushioning and support required for serious training.

How should I clean the 'White Gray' colorway?

For the 'White Gray' colorway, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Clean the leather with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. For suede areas, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper of this particular 'White Gray' variant is primarily crafted from leather, offering a classic look and feel.

Do these sneakers run true to size?

The New Balance 327 generally runs true to size for most individuals. However, they are designed for a snug fit. If you prefer more room or are between sizes, consider ordering a half-size up.

What is the benefit of the slip-resistant outsole?

The slip-resistant outsole provides enhanced traction and stability on various surfaces, reducing the risk of slipping, especially in damp conditions or on uneven terrain. This makes them reliable for everyday wear and light outdoor activities.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the leather offers some resistance, these sneakers are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it is recommended to use a water-repellent treatment on the leather and suede and to avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions to preserve the material's integrity.

What is the warranty period for New Balance shoes?

New Balance typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific warranty details can vary by region and retailer, so it's best to check the warranty information provided at the time of purchase or on the official New Balance website.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. If the snugness persists and is uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size larger or wearing thinner socks. The leather may also stretch slightly with wear.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components or moisture. Try to ensure the insoles are properly seated. A light dusting of baby powder under the insole might help. If the squeaking is from the outsole, ensure it's clean and dry.

Discoloration or stains on leather/suede

Address stains immediately using appropriate cleaners for leather and suede. For general discoloration, a specialized color restoring product might be effective. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Outsole losing grip

Clean the outsole thoroughly with soap and water to remove any dirt, oil, or debris that may be causing it to become slippery. Ensure the outsole is completely dry before use.

Care Instructions:

  2. Drying: Allow the sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
  4. Waterproofing: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to offer additional protection against the elements.
