Does New Balance 327 Run Small? Sizing and Fit Advice

Solefeed’s guide to the New Balance 327 rates it true to size in length but narrow through the midfoot and toebox.

Sizing advice

• True to size in length.
• No wide widths are made, so wide-footed buyers are advised to go half a size up.
• Those coming from Nike are also advised to go half a size up.

About the shoe

Solefeed says the 327 launched in 2020 as a deliberate remix rather than a straight retro, drawing on 1970s New Balance racers. It has a nylon mesh and suede upper, oversized angled N branding, a rubber outsole that wraps up the heel and a flat EVA midsole.

Fit tips

Try on in the afternoon with your usual socks, and check the retailer’s returns policy.

Fit varies by individual, so try before you buy where possible.
