Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5 Slip Resistant

I got double wide, and the width mainly goes to the toes and not the centre of the foot. It pinches a bit in the middle making them slightly less comfortable. Besides that I think these shoes are comfortable

I have used this version of your shoe for many years and I am finding some inconsistency in the sizing.

Liked older style #624! best Liked older style cross trainer best..

I wish they didn't change lasts every year but found one close enough

Longtime user of the 608 but something is wrong with the new purchase I made of it. Wears out faster, especially by the balls of the feet. Feel like I did not get my money's worth. Hope they put in more padding to the entire sneaker.

not much padding in them for a walking shoe kind of hurt my feet

This is my forth pair of these type of sneakers. Long lasting and always been very comfortable out of the box until this pair. Not sure why but one sneaker just isn't as comfortable as the other. So I'm disappointed with this pair.

I'm sure these are good shoes, but the toe box was not deep enough to comfortably accommodate my hammertoe. I appreciate your easy return procedure.

Usually this style fits just fine, but the right shoe fits much tighter across the lower laces. Even when I loosen laces, something inside (stitched seam) is putting pressure on the top of my toes and causes pain. No matter how thick or thin socks are, same experience.

I wear the shoes for yoga, treadmill and other exercises. The shoe is a little heavy and the pointed toe does not allow my toes to stretch out. When I finish my workout, my toes are usually hurting.

My left foot is a bit larger than my right but the right one's heel was really loose. These were a 9W but looked enormous on my feet.

Compares well with previous product #624. The tongue is short - takes effort to get strings over it. Heel has two high points for stabilization which make putting shoe on difficult. Otherwise shoe seems stable.

There were no 624s to order. I bought the 608 for the first time in a while. The 608- v5 - doesn't fit me as well as the 624s did. The 608s have not-as-much toe space as the 624s did.

I have been wearing New Balance size 8.5 wide for many years. Now they are much too short. Even the size 9 is not quite long enough. What happened?

The shoe is heavier than I expected that it is hard to move with it when I am doing zumba. But, it is comfortable.

I have really bad feet, I need shoes that have a lot of cushioning that does't disappear after being worn for a week. They fit great, they would be perfect for me if they provided that cushioning, unfortunately they don't.

I love these sneakers. I have had about 6 pairs over last 3 years. Most recent purchase (2weeks ago) the bottom front portion of sole started to come undone. Literally just applied superglue to it an hour ago. Probably just a bad run but I love these shoes and likely will but again in future.

I wish you would have a better selection for people with large feet.

I'm a long time fan of NB (decades), but the shoes seem to fall apart quicker and quicker. If they could regain some of their durability that they used to have, they'd be perfect for me.

So far, I am satisfied with these shoes, but the bottom soles of my last two pairs of shoes came off well before the uppers were showing any wear. I am also disappointed that, whenever I find a style I really like, (e.g., the women's white 624), it is discontinued. It is also becoming increasingly difficult to find women's trainers with a full, smooth leather upper, which I much prefer as, unlike mesh, they're easier to clean. Quality and selection are not as good as they used to be.

Returned these shoes two weeks ago. Felt weak construction and lack of support. I'm still waiting for my refund
