For some reason, my shoe size has become 7.5. However, for this pair of shoes, they still feel small -- my big toes feel cramped.

Very disappointed in these. Not as comfortable as past shoes, and seems very cheap quality. Ran short. And incredibly, has a pointed toe! Returning. Awful

This was the third Model 608 men's sneaker I have bought. The first two were really good. The third one, which I have returned, was very disappointing. The soles were lumpy, and there was a pressure point in the right inner upper. Uncomfortable for a fellow on his feet all day at work.

These are the most painful shoes I have ever worn. Tried this because I good not find 411s in my size and color. After trying to break them in, they almost feel like I have the shoes on the wrong foot. I may need to leave the brand after decades.

I cannot wear this product as the toe box is too narrow having just purchased the 840 in 10.5 D width which has a rounded toe. The 608 in 10.5 D width was too narrow in the forefoot which aggravated my Posterior Tibialis Tendonopathy. I will return to the Asst Store Mgr of NB Brandywine in DE along with the defective 715 trainers. The two (2) pair he recommended were not in stock nor was their availability published.

I do a lot of walking and my last pair of New Balance 608 got a hole in the top mesh part so I ordered the above pair and have developed a blister on my toe. I wish I could return them as they are not comfortable but I have already worn them outside hoping they would start to feel better but they haven't.

I have worn these sneakers for many years. I never got a pair with defects in them like this pair. I returned them to a local store, and it remains to be seen if I will buy another pair. I lost the customer coupon I had in this sale/return, and I was unable to get it back for a future use!

If I had not thrown away all the packing and box's I would return these shoes. After wearing them a few hours they made the bottom of my feet burn so badly I had to take them off.

I like the sneakers but my last three pairs of soles started to fall off starting at the toe and my neighbor had the same problem I think they have to buy better glue.

I ordered the same size always wear but they too short. Also the width across the ball of the foot, right foot shoe was visibly wider than the left. Poor quality, poorly made shoes.

I wore them (outside walking) and therefore I can't return them. I don't have the original box because I thought they fit great, until I went for a walk. In about half a mile I could feel the pain in my foot. I would have returned them, but I cannot. I have an older pair of New Balance and they fit fine. So it's not across the board.

Do not waste your money- especially if you wear a narrow shoe. These new shoes are much more uncomfortable than my old, well-worn sneakers. They do not hold the foot securely during ANY activities. I am really disappointed in New Balance. They used to be my "go to" shoe.

Unfortunately, the shoes did not work for me. I tried to just wear them in the house, but I really had to test them on an outside walk that did not work. Once I did that, there was no turning back, so now I am stuck with a pair of sneakers I will never be able to wear?..

Wide and bulky for my narrowish medium foot. Faux leather seemed really faux and cheap. Sending it back.

This was not good. The fit around the ball of my feet was so tight, the leather upper would never have stretched for a decent comfortable fit. Normally I buy a size 10 in this type of shoe, so I ordered a 10.5.. Still too tight. Walking feel was not what I expected.

I've worn New Balance for years....same size...same width, but these shoes are just too tight in size and width. Love the style and look but just too uncomfortable to wear.
