What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "My kid was immediately obsessed with the oversized 'N' and bold look of these. They're sturdy, comfy, and actually hold up through playground chaos. A great combo of vintage flair and kid-ready durability." Inspired by the golden age of running, the New Balance 327 Shoe for Little Kids brings bold '70s design into the now with a playful, scaled-down silhouette made for growing feet. Featuring details pulled from NB classics like the 320, 355, and Supercomp, this sneaker combines suede overlays, exaggerated branding, and a flared midsole to create a look that's both retro and refreshingly new. The lugged outsole offers traction for playground climbs and trail-style grip, while the leather upper and secure lace closure provide structure and durability for everyday adventures. Finished with a retro nylon tongue and wraparound rubber heel, this shoe offers style and comfort for little ones who never slow down
