I love these shoes! This is the second pair of them I've bought. They are comfortable right out of the box, and are long-wearing. I like them so much, I just bought another pair to hold onto until this pair ultimately wears out!

I've been wearing 608s for several years. They always have new colors and they always fit the same. I can always trust the 608 to fit just right and feel great.

I love my New Balance 608. 18 years in Pharmacy on my feet all day and they feel great all day.

The New Balance 608 was recommended by a podiatrist friend. It offers support and comfort. I did follow the advice to get a half-size larger.

Walking is almost a daily exercise for me, close to a mile on average. I went to a size 13 to get more room for my big toe, especially going downhill. These have done the trick. The fit feels good all around. My big toes once again have nails.

This is the best workout shoe I've had in years. I've been using it mainly for BodyPump (choreographed free weights) but would also feel completely comfortable doing elliptical in it. Great structure and stability, and I basically don't notice it, which is what I want from a workout shoe. A size 8D usually fits me, and there's bit of extra wiggle in the heel of these, but nothing slightly thicker socks don't fix. If I were going to wear the shoes for running or dance aerobics, I'd probably want a 7-1/2.

This is my 3rd pair of these shoes. I fast walk several miles per week and these shoes are great for walking. I normally wear a 7.5 but need an 8 with these shoes. I don't need to break them in...I've walked 4 miles in a brand new pair and have never had a blister. I do wear good socks also tho.

Thank you Zappos for allowing me to try on 4 different sizes. Living in a semi-remote area, there are not many stores around who carry the variety of shoes that Zappos does. These New Balance court shoes (I play Pickleball) are perfect. I've been wearing New Balance for 20 years, and my old ones were so old that I was unable to discern the WIDTH. Thought it was wide. NOT. Anyhow, after 4 tries I got it right. It's a pleasure doing business with you, because I was able to ship the unworn shoes back for Free. That's a HUGE plus!! Oh, and P.S. You should advertise your court shoes both for Pickleball and Tennis. There are 4.1 million Pickleball players in the world, and growing by leaps and bounds!

I need a sneaker with leather caps over the toes instead of mesh as my toes quickly poke holes in mesh. These New Balance shoes have leather and are very good looking. They are also very comfortable on long walks and in the gym.

My physical therapist recommended these while I was learning to walk again after a broken and dislocated ankle. They give great support and the lacing is easily adjusted to accommodate swelling.
