FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?
These New Balance 327 trainers are specifically designed for kids, covering a range of children's sizes.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The 327 trainers are best suited for recreational activities and everyday wear. While they offer good comfort and grip, they are not designed for specialized athletic performance like competitive running or basketball.
How do I clean the pink and white materials?
For general cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. For suede or leather parts, use specialized cleaners. Always air dry and avoid direct heat.
What is the main benefit of the bungee lace system?
The bungee lace system makes it easy for children to put on and take off their shoes independently, while also providing a secure and adjustable fit.
What inspired the design of the 327 trainers?
The design is inspired by classic 1970s New Balance running shoe aesthetics, reinterpreted with a contemporary outlook and modern features.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are made from materials like nylon, suede, and leather, which are not inherently waterproof.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing guide and measure your child's foot accurately. The UK 11.5 size is specified for this particular model, but it's always best to check against current foot measurements.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the bungee laces. Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets for a secure yet comfortable fit. Check the size guide for accurate foot measurement.
Dirt and stains on the upper material.
Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede or leather, use appropriate cleaning products for those materials. Allow to air dry.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole, or within the shoe's construction. Ensure the insole is properly seated. A light dusting of talcum powder under the insole might help if the sound persists.
