New Balance’s 327 is a sneaker that needs no introduction. After a busy 2020 with collaborations alongside the likes of Casablanca, Levi’s and Aries, followed by a number of in-line releases already this year — there’s certainly no rest for the retro silhouette.

Now stripping things back a touch, New Balance has dressed the streamline sneaker in a monochrome black and grey colorway. Sat atop a chunky white midsole, the 327 boasts a nylon upper with suede overlays and a tonal lacing system.

Completed with the signature studded gum sole, the large “N” logo on the exterior of the sneaker has become a signature of the 327.

Available now from the Aphrodite webstore, the New Balance’s black/grey 327 retails at £75 (approximately $103 USD).

In other sneaker news, Reebok has released a rich “Deep Forest” take of its DMX Trail.
