New Balance Women's 327 Linen/Sea Salt - Size 5

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 '70s 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, oversized, asymmetrically applied 'N' branding, and wraparound, trail-inspired lug outsole, the 327 provides a complete reimagination of our running heritage. This shoe features a flared midsole, synthetic upper with an exaggerated fang design inspired by the 320, 355, and Supercomp, and a rubber heel wrap inspired by the 320, 355, and Super. Available in a linen with sea salt colorway, this shoe is designed for men and women who value a classic look with a modern twist.
