Customer Reviews New Balance WX608v4

Has NB change sizing? 1st ordered usual 10N, as soon as I looked in the box could see they were smaller than usual 10N-toes ended up rubbing on end. Measured against current pair of NB 10N, almost 1/2” shorter. Ordered 11N, would work if laced up so tightly that it hurt top of foot but kept from sliding to end. Returning them too. Trying a Saucony now. They do 1/2 sizes.

Got fitted at a new balance store as a 10.5 4E..hobbit feet basically. This model fit on my left foot ( was uncomfortable though ) but was too narrow on my right foot. Foot was hurting from just wearing the shoe around the house. In the process of returning sadly. Shouldn't be so hard to find a sneaker that fits.

A full size too small and that's more work for everyone. Not much selection in narrows from this brand.

I bought these shoes because i have a plastic heel cup insert and needed a wider shoe. The are wide and my insert fits fine. After months of wearing, the insert-which is smooth-caused the inside lining to wear off. I switched back to an old pair of Brooks ghosts and didn’t realize until then how extremely heavy the NB 608s are. They are a supportive neutral shoe, but too heavy for me.

very short length in toe area. Agree with others about ordering 1/2 size up to see the fit is better. purchased for function not style

Searching for a work shoe so I ordered every black New Balance they had. These were a finalist!! Super soft foot bed felt great at first but after wearing them for a day they didn't have enough arch support for me. Run a little small in length and a little wide but that gave me extra room for my orthotics.

This shoe was not comfortable for my foot and it was not very sturdy for my narrow foot. I also thought it would be like another 608 New Balance shoe I have had in the past and it was not.

I had ordered another pair of New Balance athletic shoes in 9.5 wide, but for this style, the same size was much too big. It must run large. Decent looking walking shoe though.

I had a pair of New Balance shoes several years ago that I just loved from the moment I put them on. They were comfortable and well padded. They did tend to stretch out after awhile, but I still found them super comfortable. Thought I'd try them again. I have very small feet--size 5, sometimes 5 1/2, usually B width works, but often the shoe is too narrow for my foot. It's hard to find shoes that fit, especially in stores. So I usually order on line (Zappo's is the only store I've purchased shoes from). I ordered these in size 5. They fit great as far as the width, and on the right foot, but on my left foot, my big toe hit the edge of the shoe. I was also hoping for something with more padding. I wore these shoes around my house to see if they stretched out, but they didn't and in fact, began to hurt the bottoms of my feet after standing for a few hours. There just isn't as much padding as I was hoping for. I ended up returning them and will look for another shoe.

Maybe a smidge bigger than a usual Womens 9, moderate arch support is being generous. i really don't feel it and I don't think I have much of an arch. I wear wide and got the D width, which is wider than I am used to, but i like it cause one foot runs a big bigger.

These shoes look great but they are very small. I would say maybe even a full size too small. I cannot speak to the comfort because I could not get my feet in them!

I really wanted to like/keep these shoes, but there is absolutely no arch support. I even tried them with Superfeet inserts, but there's just no support. They have to go back.

This shoe felt a size smaller than marked, so I returned them. Customer service made the return very easy!

I wanted to love this shoe but it's very tight. I usually get a 12 so that my toes have room to move. This was too tight! It looks great, stylish but my feet were and are still killing me after wearing them just one day at work. The soles don't have enough comfortable padding so my heels have been aching since and that was 5 days ago! Because I have big, I'm very limited with colors and comfort, having high arches. I'll have to stick with my usual type of New Balance WW759. I just wish they came in pretty colors.

I have been buying this shoe for years. The last one I ordered was the 608v2. I am returning them because even though I got exactly the same size and width as always, this shoe was about a half size shorter and the toe box was way to wide even though I ordered a narrow width (2a) I am trying another model to see if it is better

The style was good and the shoe nice leather, however, the sizing for length was short and the toe box narrow. I didn't feel there has any arch support either. A size larger for a tennis shoe than my regular shoe size is usually generous yet these were not.

These are the least comfortable athletic shoes I've bought in several years. They are stiff and offer little arch support. Took a 20 minute walk in them and need to change shoes to relax my feet. Wish I'd returned them.

I have bought this sneaker many times. Unfortunately the styling has changed and the toe box is pointed instead of round causing me to lose a big toe nail. Second pair started blisters. Very sad I need to find a new sneaker.

I usually wear 10.5 in New Balance and many shoes, because of orthotics or heel pads. I have never needed an 11 in any shoe. But with this shoe, my toe was bumping the end in even a size 11! I gave up on this style. But bravo to Zappo's for great service in helping me try... the search continues.

I ordered an 11 M. These sneakers fit more like a 9.5-10.

I have been wearing these shoes and their predecessors for decades for weight training and cardio, mostly on an elliptical. I bought an extra pair of v4 a couple of years ago because I liked the colors. The new ones, also v4, are visibly shorter (maybe narrower, too) when compared sole to sole with the ones I previously purchased. There is also a little fold in the lining at the end of the toe. I thought this was just a manufacturing defect when I tried the first one on, but it was there in both shoes. I could easily feel it when they were on. No more NB 608 for me.
