Are these new balance 327 legit?

Hey everyone, I bought a pair of New Balance 327 trainers off TikTok shop for £55, but now I’m worried they might be fake. The barcode was just a page with numbers, and the label is in Chinese. The seller isn’t selling anymore, but it says I can get a refund.
Has anyone bought NBs through TikTok before? How can I tell if they’re real or fake? Should I just go for the refund?

Of course they're fake, I can't believe you even need to ask!

I have those trainers, they don’t look like that!

They are fake. Get a refund if you can,

I’ve got several pairs of those and they don’t look like yours, sorry…I’d get a refund.

Ah, thanks everyone! I’ve clearly been living under a rock with New Balance 😅 Lesson learned—won’t be getting anything off TikTok again! Really appreciate the heads-up. Off to try get refund 😅

I bought a pair of 327s from a Chinese site and one of the N's was back to front 😆 It was such a shame as they were otherwise perfect quality.

I did get a refund though, so you should be OK. I also got to keep the trainers but I gave them away - I cringed every time I looked at them. Lesson learned!

Lol re the N back to front! Glad you got a refund. Hope I do.🙏
