I need shoes with a super wide toe box. I called NewBalance and they told me that the MX608v5 had an extra wide toe box, so I ordered them in 13 4E. These were some of the most narrow sneakers I've tried on in years. I don't know if it's NewBalance's new standard, but if it is, I need to find a new brand for wide shoes. Any suggestions?

Why the hell is this shoe falling apart? It is bad enough zappos large size sneakers selection has tanked and gotten to next to nothing unless you wanna wear kid shoe brands like DC, this is ridiculous. I'm tired of this and wish zappos would take some responsibility and do something about it w shoe manufacturers. I call n call and call or email and it's the customary BS answers. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT ALREADY CAUSE ITS REALLY PREJUDICIAL TO GUYS W LARGE FEET.

I agree with some other, this shoe runs small. It's shorter and narrower than the 608v4 which I loved. Time to search for another trainer. I never understand why these companies change the fit of existing styles.

My wife has worn NB shoes for many years, so we know her size. This shoe ran more than a full size short! If you have short toes, it might work. If you have normal toes, you might get by with a half-size to a size larger. If you have long toes, I do not recommend this shoe. If you go more than a full size away from your normal shoe size, you run a risk of having the arch of the shoe in the wrong place.

The shoes fit and feel good on the feet. Unfortunately they are platform shoes. I feel two inches taller wearing them. Another issue is that my toes can make contact with the ground in these shoes.

The shoes were great. Unfortunately the left shoe was too tight and caused discomfort. I don't think it ws the shoes - I think my left foot is a bit wider.

The blind monkey that Zappos hired to fulfill my order sent me women's golf shoes. Not only did I order men's shoes 8(!) sizes larger than what showed up, but I ordered Grey Suede, but received White & Neon Green. Swing and a miss.

I bought the New Balance trainers because I need a high arch support with a wide toe box. I tried them on and they were so painful that I removed them within one hour.

This show was the shoddiest piece of manufacturing I have ever experienced. The tread began to separate from the soles about a week after purchase; I glued one portion down only to have another portion separate, and then another. Terrible workmanship.

bought a NB waterproof sneaker 7.5 wide which fit very well. This is the same stated size but much larger.

The bag enclosed a shoe box tattered. I looked on the shoe for the words "Rollbar" I told the customer rep at least 3 times I wanted a shoe with a rollbar. He said he would make sure it was there. The shipped shoe had no rollbar in the shoe. It was futile to try the shoes on, when my order was not as expected. I await my new shoe in the return process. signed: Disappointed customer

The exterior synthetic material on these was extremely uncomfortable/thick. I ordered two sizes, received one and had to immediately return it. When the other one arrives that will go back too, sorry but these were very uncomfortable

This particular pair did not fit and, unfortunately need to be returned for an 11.5 wide if in stock. If not available then I will return for a refund

The NB 600 series leather shoes used to be good quality shoes but not anymore. The last 3 pairs I purchased all wore out prematurely in the same areas. The stitching around the front toes always comes apart way before the soles are worn. I won't be buying them anymore.
