FAQs
Are the New Balance 327 trainers suitable for sports?
These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They offer good comfort and traction for everyday play but are not intended for high-performance athletic training.
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
It's recommended to measure your child's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the New Balance size chart available on their official website or retail product pages. Ensure there's a little room for growth.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials (leather, suede, nylon) and affect the shoe's structure. Hand wash or spot clean according to the care instructions.
What is the primary material used in these trainers?
The trainers utilize a combination of materials, including leather, suede, and nylon, contributing to their unique look and durability.
Are there other colors available in the 327 series for kids?
Yes, the New Balance 327 series is often available in various colorways. Please check the product listings for currently available options.
How do the 327 trainers differ from traditional New Balance running shoes?
The 327 line is a lifestyle-inspired shoe that borrows heavily from 1970s running shoe aesthetics but is designed for casual wear, unlike performance-focused running models.
Is the sizing true to fit for children?
Sizing can vary slightly between brands and even models. It's best to measure your child's foot and consult the specific size guide for the New Balance 327 to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the laces to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. Ensure you are using the correct size; consult the New Balance size guide if unsure.
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Consider applying a suede protector spray after cleaning.
Tread wears down quickly
This is uncommon with normal use. Ensure the child is not using the trainers for activities that cause excessive abrasion, such as aggressive sliding or rough ground contact beyond typical play.
Colors appear to bleed
This can happen with new shoes, especially if exposed to excessive moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions. If bleeding occurs, clean gently as per care instructions.
