Customer Reviews New Balance 680v5

There is a very prominent seam at the base of the toes. I couldn’t comfortably wear them to walk, let alone run. I loved my 860v3, and they didn’t have the seam. Strange addition from New Balance, and these are going back.

I've had several pairs of the v4. These seem a little narrower across the toes and whoever said they are too stiff was right! the soles are not flexible enough for running.

I wear a wide width and it fits a wide foot well as is very comfortable. I also like the material of the shoe -- feels sturdier than the cheap material that they use for a lot of athletic shoes nowadays (hoping it wil last longer!).

They fit right out of the box just the way I expected they would!

Everything about this shoe is perfect. I recently was able to get back to walking on the track and needed to replace my well-loved but well-worn NB running shoes. These shoes fill the bill for support, which I badly needed. Thank you, Zappos, for all that you do! xoxo

Great shoes. Fit was perfect!

These shoes are supportive. They feel true to size and width. Overall, they are very comfortable!

I had to get an ll W due to needing an inshoe brace. Wonderful! Love this shoe. It is sturdy and helps keep my foot aligned.

My mom was eying mine so I bought her a pair. She loves them as much as me :) Great for wide feet!

I have wide feet and these are the first athletic shoes that don't feel like my feet are going to bust out the sides. So comfy!

I bought these for my daughter who has wide feet and is usually hard to fit. We have purchased the New Balance wide shoes before and the wide versions are a very true fit and very comfortable for my daughter.

I usually wear a 12 M in a sport shoe, but for some reason I thought I should order it in W since my everyday shoes are W. In this case the wide was too bit for my foot. Next time I will order in regular.

I already have the Vivid Coral pair of these New Balance. I bought a 2nd pair, in a toned down color, because they are so comfortable and have a wide toe box which accommodates my prosthetic.

I bought these for my twelve year old granddaughter, who wears a size 8. I went up to a 8.5 because I normally do a half size larger for myself in sports shoes. She loves them and wears them every day to Middle school. The picture doesn't show how beautiful the colors are. She loves them!

I have wide feet and have a hard time finding shoes. This product was delivered as advertised and fit.

I usually wear a 11 M but when i purchase a sport shoe I always go up l size. This summer my feet feel as if they have gotten wider so I ordered the wide. In this case, they were too wide. I would stick to your original width for this shoe.

I love New Balance shoes and this version is very comfortable. Fits great. Light weight. Bright Coral color.

Just got them. They felt fine in trying on but will have to see how they are with some wear

I like the store, but I usually buy New Balance because they have a roomy toe box. These shoes are much narrower there than my other wide New Balances. I tried to wear the for a day because they look nice and are made well, but there's just not enough give around the toes for my hobbit-like feet.

Had purchased three pairs of this shoe spring 2018. Purchased 2 more pairs, same model, in different colors fall 2018. Something is different about the manufacturing of the shoes that I received in the fall than the 3 pairs I purchased late spring 2018. The shoes I received in the fall clicked every time I took a step. I love this style and I hope it was just a glitch at the time of manufacturing. Would appreciate hearing from New Balance re this.

I wear 9.5 or 10, both W, and ordered this shoe in 10W. I haven't been out for a walk in the shoes, only walked around the house, but they seem fine. I couldn't wear them with a thick sock even though the shoes are wide but that's okay. I got these for walks around the neighborhood and in the park and I think they'll be fine.

I bought 2 pair of the 680v3 so I didn't need new shoes until now. These fit just as comfortably as the v3 but I hate the colors. The style leaves a lot to be desired now. They are dreary colored & boring. I loved my dark fushia, blue, purple and lime colored shoes I had before. I wish NB offered bright colored shoes like the 574v2 line. Unfortunately the574v2s were too narrow even in a wide. These shoes have no arch support so my orthotics fit in them. The foot pad is removable. Comfortable, lots of toe room width-wise and in height. I ordered wide. They slip slightly in the heel but I have narrow heels compared to the front of my foot. All shoes do this to me. They don't slip enough to bother me. I tend to wear thin socks. I will keep these because comfort is more inportant than color. These feel great. I don't recommend them for flat arches if you don't have orthotics.

Definitely keeping these, though I will add an insert for arch support

Vivid coral is much more like bright neon pink. The color is far off from the photo here. Not necessarily a bad thing, just something to keep in mind.

These seemed a little stiff. I wear a 10W, and the length and width were fine.
