I'm not using this shoe. I'm disappointed and am returning it. The shoe is a little too short. Otherwise would love it.

Wear them every day. Very comfortable, no slipping on the heel. Feel like I could walk for hours which I actually do on my job. Live my NB shoes. Will be ordering again !

This is my second pair. My orthopod recommended Model 608 to correct my pronation and Iused that pair for several years. Now that I have a new pair I am receiving the same results. I highly recommend them. The price is reght too!

This NB sneaker has become my go to shoe. Very comfortable and stylish. Great for long walks with dog and they’re also solid court shoes.

I bought these for my grandson. I ordered a size larger than he normally wears. They fit him. I bought them in black. He like the shiny color. I am waiting to order New Balance for my granddaughter but they are on back order.

I used to always wear the 608 style in a wide width. I haven't been able to find it until now; the closest I came was the 624 style, which was pretty close if not the same. I recently purchased the 608 as they"appeared' in my search. They would be perfect except the top gaps and bends when I walk (between the toe and the start of the laces). I do not think regular width will correct the problem so I am returning and reordering the 624 style. Other than that they are perfect and for nicely and comfortably.

I had been looking for a brown sneaker and finally found one with my favorite sneaker company. Continue to keep the arch support in your sneakers

These are a little stiffer than they used to be. Like they need to be worn in. They are also narrow. I normally wear a 6.5 med but would need a wide in these. They do have great support though.

I spend a lot of time on my feet - resulting in nearly unbearable foot and leg pain.
After decades of living strictly in one specific company's shoes, I began looking for footwear that could help me. I've spent ridiculous amounts of money on an array of shoe and boot styles, trying to find the support I need.
I had never tried New Balance, until now...
And I am very glad I finally have!
With my style preference of all white everything, I stumbled upon these shoes. In the short amount of time I have been able to explore these sneakers, they have surprised me beyond belief in their out-of-the-box comfort and support. This pair gives me what I need, where I need it the most.
It is such a delight to find an American company still offering quality made products at affordable prices.
I will not mention competitor names. However, after twenty-plus years as a consumer of another brand, I can undoubtedly say that New Balance will now have my loyal patronage.

I love the products New Balance offers, I have worn them for years. they are like an old friend, always comfortable even after five miles on the trail. I am living in a small town where they are not available at any store here, so I went online to order. Take note, the whole process was very easy, user friendly site, navigation was a snap. Delivery was quick and free, 4 days. However my problem is the sizes run a little small. I wear a 13 and they were very snug and I know they would not stretch, so order a size larger. I even considered maybe my feet grew a bit, but all my other shoes still fit. They included a sheet of paper in the she box, simple instructions to go online and print a return address label which I did and dropped off at UPS. They have contacted me by E mail to let me know they are processing return, and I should see my refund on my account within 10 business days. I did ask if they could not refund, just send out a new pair in a size larger and was told no, they were not set up for exchange, only returns so please re order. I will re order as soon as I see refund because I do not want to go down that rabbit hole of chasing refund for the next year.
So all in all, yes, do business here, great shoes, great company.

Purchased the black leather 608v5 because the gray version I also own is comfortable and quiet. The black leather version squeaks very loud when walking on hard surfaces such as tile or wood. Silent as a lamb on carpet but really noisy on hard surfaces.
Called New Balance they don't have a fix and won't replace the shoe.
Recommendation: Don't buy the black leather version.
