With the rise of recreational running in the '70s, the benchmark for running footwear shifted from mere existence to performance. While the era's designs might be considered too basic by today's standards, it stands out as a time when running shoes truly came into their own. The New Balance 327 rediscovers the '70s as a time of innovation, boldly reimagining classic design elements for the modern age. With an edgy reimagining of the tried-and-true raised silhouette, asymmetrical "N" branding, and a trail-inspired, wraparound outsole, the 327 is a complete reimagining of our running heritage.
