As recreational running established widespread popularity in the 1970s, the benchmark for running footwear shifted from mere existence to performance. While the era's designs would be considered simple by today's standards, the decade stands out as the moment when running shoes truly came into their own. The 327 sheds new light on the â70s as a time of innovation by boldly reshaping classic design elements with a thoroughly contemporary outlook. With an angular reworking of the tried-and-true wedge silhouette, outsize, asymmetrically applied âN' branding, and wraparound, trail-inspired lug outsole, the 327 provides nothing less than a complete reimagination of our running heritage.

Overall, I like the shoes. They're probably the most comfortable NBs I've ever worn. I only like the solid colored ones because I think the toes look very odd on the multi-colored ones. I was hoping the dark blue color would be a little more subdued--it's a little too bright and in-your-face for my liking. For this reason they don't pair with as many outfits. Rather than compliment other clothes, they steal the show a little too much.

Fantastic looking shoe, with ample amounts of cushion and support! Love the front to back rubber and the look of the shoe is unlike anything else out there. Haven't used them for anything other than long walks and hanging out, and am pleasantly surprised at how light weight and comfortable they are. Whenever i wear them they get compliments, which i find kinda weird since i usually dont look at peoples feet.

It's Rare that I get compliments on shoes. I Have received a compliment or two with these. I did like that they go well with Khakis as well as bike riding. The orange is not too bright. The top toe design is quite an improvement from the throwback designs. Sometimes the back heel bottom slightly nicks my bike frame while pedaling, but it's very occasional I just adjust my front box inward and all is well. Nice work NB!

I bought these thinking they would fit me. Why would shoes be gender inclusive? These are menâs, not womenâs. Iâm a woman. I want shoes that are for women. I had to return these. Stop trying to be woke. Itâs perfectly fine to have things that are made just for men or just for women.
Yes these are Menâs shoes, if you scroll to the bottom when looking at these shoes and you see the page that says what outfits these shoes go with, youâll notice itâll all menâs clothing, so yes it takes a bit more looking but these are menâs shoes.I normally wear a 9.5 in lady shoes and I ordered an 8.5 in these new balance shoes, fits spot on. If you try to go bigger then depending on your ankle size, they might get too loose. I have longer toes and wish I could have a smidge more room than the 8.5 only in the toe area but when I tried that, they got loose around the back. I have them in a few different colors. These pics attached above are of the sea salt shoes, Iâm not In love with how the fabric looks sort of worn out, but I like the black and navy combo so ... MoreYes these are Menâs shoes, if you scroll to the bottom when looking at these shoes and you see the page that says what outfits these shoes go with, youâll notice itâll all menâs clothing, so yes it takes a bit more looking but these are menâs shoes.I normally wear a 9.5 in lady shoes and I ordered an 8.5 in these new balance shoes, fits spot on.

Iâm thinking I might go for another black/navy combo in the same style because I think the black leather trim on the shoe might bug me with the over worn look.But overall, itâs a cute shoe, definitely unisex if you make sure you pick your size. Also going to new balance.com and finding their chart conversion (men to women sizes) might help when trying to figure out what size to purchase these. Hope that helps ! Happy shopping :)
I purchased these in the store, while on a business trip. My work shoes were so uncomfortable, I literally wore these out of the store! Kept them on for several meetings, including a dinner I had to walk 5 blocks to, and then the whole way home through airports. Very comfortable. Would definitely purchase again.
Shoes are menâs sizes!! No where in the website did it mention being menâs sizes. They are listed under âwomenâs shoesâ. So confusing and frustrating- I drove over an hour to a nordstroms to exchange them for the correct size but was disappointed when I learned they didnât carry them in store. Waste of time!!!
These shoes are great for leisure time or just hanging out with friends or family. They are very sporty looking and catches the eye very easily. They are comfortable for walking in but not for all day use. They are less comfortable for running or long days of work. I do recommend these for casual use and style. Thanks!
I am a female, and read the description that said "gender inclusive"........but this is not true. The sneakers I received said "MEN'S" on the box.....they are huge and extremely wide. When I came to this website to look for women's sneakers, I selected "women's" in the drop down. These sneakers came up, and when I saw it said gender inclusive, I thought it meant they were offered in both men's and women's sizes. I chose women's so I chose the size I would be in women's. But they are men's sizing, so they are way too large for me. Come on Nordstrom, do better and give us an honest description. You didn't and you they will have to be shipped back to you. waste of my time and your money. And I still need sneakers!
I love these shoes. They are incredibly comfortable. Purchased size 9. The colors are gorgeous. Love the retro brushed suede against the indigo, makes my foot look slim. The sole coming up the back of the shoe is cool too. Wore them to Pearl Jam concert and jumped around all night. Pure comfort and support for my finicky feet and ankles.
