New Balance U 327 WRD

As recreational jogging grew in popularity in the 1970s, the benchmark for running shoes shifted from mere existence to performance. While the designs of the era would be considered simplistic by today’s standards, the decade was 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 reinterpretation of the tried-and-true wedge silhouette, outsize, asymmetrically applied ‘N’ branding, and a wraparound, trail-inspired lug outsole, the 327 offers nothing less than a complete reimagination of our running heritage.

• Oversized asymmetric ‘N’ branding
• Trail-inspired lug outsole wraps around the toe and heel
• EVA midsole cushioning
• Mesh upper
• Suede overlays
