I like the style of the shoe however, it’s wasn’t true to size. They felt smaller than average.

I've been wearing some variation of New Balance 608s for over 20 years because they're comfortable and because they come in WIDE sizes. It's hard to find athletic shoes in wide sizes. Though I take a little ribbing from my boys with my "geezer shoes" (along with my crew socks), they are true classics. This version is pretty stiff out of the box, and they need a good "break-in" period to loosen up and conform to your feet. Good all-purpose shoes.

Bought these to do cardio at my work gym. They work great on the elliptical, rower, walking laps, and the stationary bike. The fit is comfy and true to my size. Will buy again.

I bought these for my niece who was turning 13. She saw these on your website and decided this is what she wanted for her birthday. She absolutely loves them and was so happy when she opened the box. They fit her perfectly.

I'm on my second pair of apparently discontinued 624s, where my first pair lasted only 4 months where the sole in the toe area separated from the uppers. MX608V5 a lot rides on your build once my second pair of 624 dies, hopeful to get a year and not 4 months. I buy ahead of time as to not get caught in the supply chain issue and NB have been great to me before, that's why I stick with them :)

I've bought these sneakers the past 3 years and have zero complaints. I have Planters Fasciitis so these sneakers are a perfect fit for me.

I needed something with arch support. These shoes have that. They are perfection. I don't know why I waited so long to buy.

I got the same trainers I always get (MX608V5) in the same color. They are $50 cheaper than ones I got a while ago. I thought about changing style or color, but I decided to stay the course. Very comfortable and a good fit (4E width).

I have other 608V and the toe space on this one is narrower by about 1/4 -1/2 inch, which makes a big difference in fit - toe is too narrow

I'm a nurse on my feet for 12+ hour shifts. Generally a very good sneaker. I have one spot below my great toe that rubs and irritates it. Hopefully once they get worn in a bit it won't bother me anymore.

Great shoe great fit however inside the top left shoe by the base of my big toe is it not of thread or glue which is jamming into my toe after wearing them for two days I was going to return them however I sniffed it off with scissors and it's fine now this should've been probably sent out a seconds that was my only disappointment

This is a very poor new balance shoe. It runs terribly wide and if I didn't have to put an orthotic in it I would've returned it. I only bought it because it's leather and it's good if it's raining out. Very surprised at how poor the fit is.

I need a good solid foundation for walking that also is comfortable. This shoe fits the bill. It's well constructed and can stand lots of use/abuse.
