When New Balance 608\'s became hard to find, I turned to Zappo\'s to see what they had as a substitute worth trying. The V2 608\'s are similar to the first version, and are very comfortable. I find they are slightly wider than the originals, so I could have gone a size narrower. LOOOOOONG shoestrings too, which in my opinion is a big plus. I have never found any shoe that is as comfortable and long-lasting as the 608\'s were, and time will tell on these. Had them about a month and all\'s well so far. By the way, Zappo\'s ships FAST! With standard shipping, I had these the morning after I ordered them the evening before. Don\'t know how they did it!

I purchased the New Balance MX608V2 for my son and he was having trouble with one of his feet when the new shoes arrived. He started wearing the MX609V2 and his problem went away. He is very happy with this shoe and has asked me to order another pair in black.

I ordered these shoes at 7:00 p.m. and received them at my door at 1:00 p.m. the next day. That was fast. The shoes are great and exactly what I wanted and cheaper than our local retailer who did not have the color I wanted in stock. I am very satisfied and this was the second purchase that I have made from your company in six years. It will not be my last.

I have bought many pairs of shoes from Zappos and I love the convenience and prompt delivery. The New Balance trainers I bought were exactly what I wanted and they fit perfectly.

VIP service is great; next day the shoes were here. The New Balance shoes are similar to what I had before and they have not disappointed me. The fit is what I expected and they were comfortable from the first time I put them on.

The New Balance MX608V2 provides the same support as is found in the "regular" New Balance 608, but with a look that is less of a gym shoe, and more of a casual dress shoe, with a moc toe appearance. If it's New Balance, you know it will be a good product. It's just a matter of finding the right shoe for the right activity.
Brands I'd also recommend: I\'m a New Balance man - That\'s the only place I check, but with Zappo\'s, of course!

This is my first pair of NB and I gotta say i'm pretty impressed. They are incredibly well built, very comfortable and supportive throughout the foot. Essentially they are designed as a walking shoe, although I also use them for aerobic training and they work great with great support on the side of the shoe. So, for example, when you do jumping jacks, your foot doesn't slide in the shoe to the side, like it would with a running shoe. I mainly use them for work and I'm on my feet quite a bit throughout the day and they perform perfectly. I've had a similar Reebok walking shoe and they were definitely not as well built, as supportive, or comfortable as these. The Reeboks were considerably less expensive than these NB, which is most likely why there was a big difference in the comfort. However in my opinion when it comes to good footwear you really get what you pay for so I don't mind spending more for a good pair of shoes that are comfortable, supportive, and will last. You depend on your feet, so they deserve a good pair of quality shoes

The New Balance MX608V2 is a very comfortable shoe with a roomy toe box. Order a half size larger than your dress shoe size, though.

I wanted a sturdy but light weight shoe, mainly for going on long walks. I have been wearing this New Balance shoe for over a month now and its just what I needed. Plenty of support and comfort.

I got these to wear on days when my feet are sore from my morning run, but I need something resembling a business casual shoe. They are very comfortable. Seem to be made relatively well. Styling could be better, but to me comfort was the key.

Great shoes at a great price. I have terribly flat feet and always have foot pain with most shoes. These new walking shoes help that problem and I can have them on longer than other shoes I have worn.

I am very pleased with my New Balance shoes I ordered from Zappos. I first got a pair of slip-on Propets 2 or 3 years ago. This is my 2nd order from Zappos and will surely not be my last. The shipping and customer service from the company is awesome. It is hard to find shoes in my size and width and Zappos makes it very easy to find what I am looking for. I will definitely return for more purchases. Shipping was super fast also. I would recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable pair of shoes.

These shoes are OK. The materials are great and it's put together well. The only complaint are the soles as they feel like blocks of wood. The soles are thick and not shock absorbent enough to reduce the shock running through your knees, hips, and back. Also my heel lifts out of the right shoe no matter how tight I lace up.

The shoes are very comfortable, but there could be more arch support. The shoestrings are a little on the long side so I had to trim them.

I wear a size 18ee shoe, so I have a lot of trouble finding shoes that have a good fit, but I found these shoes to be so comfortable, that a couple of days later, I bought 2 more pairs of the same style in a different color. What impressed me the most was the speed that they were delivered.

These were a replacement for a defective pair I was sent and while I dixn\'t get a refund for the previous (used shoes!) pair I was sent, they did give me $25 credit toward another pair. I ordered the new shoes and 2 days later they were on my porch. Pretty good customer service and excellent at getting my order ASAP.
