Set To Drop: New Balance 327 'Black/Grey'

Versatility and comfort are two benefits that can’t be compromised when considering a sneaker. No need for New Balance's latest emergence of the 327 lines. This instant hit has managed to blend modern technology with vintage stylings. The 327 has a look of today that keeps its appearance contemporary. It is impossible, however, do not notice the disco era design layout of the 1970s built in the silhouette. Sleek in shape, the shoe has a slick upper and durable sole. The influence of retro runners helped to make an instant classic amongst NB enthusiasts worldwide. Daily errands meet agile workout sessions in this innovative lifestyle sneaker. With a minimalistic appeal that has caused sizes to sell out, we expect nothing less from this Black edition.

Behind the Design

The upper has a combination of casual blends. Mesh and nimble Nylon is seen as the base body fabric of choice for the overall shoe. Layered on top is Suede triple stitched on the mudguard, toe box, foot arch, eyestays, and heel tab. Tongue tags, on the other hand, are fiery Red with the alternate ‘NB’ logo woven on the front. There’s an adjustable lace closure available to further customize your ideal fit. Right on the outer foot is a humongous ‘N’ printed boldly across its quarter in reflective fashion. The rest of the shoe truly showcases the retro influence with its midsole and outsole. Chunky in look and texture, the off-white midsole is fairly firm with a narrow cut. At the bottom is a waffle rubber outsole that starts from the toe tip and extends to the heel notch. The rubber outsole provides secure traction and long-lasting durability which made this series a bestseller.

The New Balance 327 “Black” will be available in-stores and online Saturday, October 3rd at DTLR.com
