Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5 Slip Resistant

I have a pair of New Balance that I aDORE, but following foot surgery find them too small. Unfortunately, for me, these are apparently in-between whatever size I need now. I said they're true to size, because they likely are for most people, but for me, they're about 25% too big (so, not even a half size).

I loved the style and fit. But for some reason, no matter what I did to adjust the lacing, I would inevitably end up with tingling or numbness in my toes.

I have a wide toe box but narrow heel so fit is difficult

These remind of shoes from the 80s in terms of look and feel. They fit okay, but were really heavy - I guess I'm used to lighter fabrics. The toe box was fine (I have a wide foot), but there wasn't much cushion.

Cute shoes, but felt boxy and ran large

They were not comfortable, They felt very heavy.

\ These shoes were very uncomfortable. The sole was stiff and lacked padding. I've sent them back.

They fit OK but I wanted real leather.

These just didn't fit right, nor did they have the support I'm used to with some other NB shoes. The toe box was narrower, I think. Basically, I'll just have to stick with the ones that I've worn for a while!

I have bunions and my feet hurt as I tried them on. They seem less cushion than previous New Balance trainers I used to buy and wear from 2006 to about mid 2010s.

The shoe length was fine, the support was good, the toe box was so small it made it very uncomfortable. Other friends have told me they are having the same issue with many shoes these days. Manufacturer needs to know that women's toes are not usually a steep angle from big toe to little toe.

These fit as expected and they look nice, too. My orthotics fit, but they are squeaky so I’m still thinking about whether I’ll keep the shoes.

It was a narrow, but felt wider. Overall, just did not feel right on my feet.

hurt right foot

This is a great hiking shoe for me and meets all my podiatrist's recommendations; HOWEVER, there has always been a major problem with proper sizing! I usually wear 9.5 B. Ordered, full size or more too large. Ordered replacement with a narrow width and this felt and fit great!!! Reordered the narrow after a year and I could not get my foot into them. Replaced with a B width which fit okay EXCEPT no toe room! I will be searching at the local sporting shop to see if there is another style for me that will work. Very disappointed that the sizing is not more consistent!!!

Shoe did not have enough support.
