The shoe is well built and comfortable - except when I step on a shoe string. The strings are way too long. I see no reason why that is.

Consistent quality and specs make NB one of the best and my choice in athletic shoes.

I love this style and question why it is being fazed out from the women's sizes. It is the most comfortable for my feet and wear them daily, especially at work.

Truly such comfy shoes for such a reasonable price. The memory foam soles are a game changer and the foot/toe bed is the perfect width so my ingrown toenails don't get irritated. I have a medium/high arch and I've never had any arch pain in these either. I've used these every morning for mixed training at the gym (walking, pilates, weights, etc.) for the past 3 weeks since getting and I'm still very happy with my purchase. And lastly, not that style always matters when it comes to working out/foot health but I really love how classic these look. You can never go wrong with NB!

I always buy model 608 because I have a wide foot and wear orthofics. They never fail for fit and comfort.

Shoes are comfortable and I need the big and wide shoes as I had 11 operations on my left leg. NB works great for me!

The width is tight. I'm hoping it will stretch a bit. It's the first time I ever thought I needed W rather than M. My 608V5 suede pair is extremely comfortable

I ordered a size 12 as my feet have expanded and my arches have fallen with age. My current shoes are a size 11 Wide and my toes are punching the ends of the 608s. I recieved them in a timely manner but when I tried them on my foot floated in them and I couldn't tie them tight enough to snug them up. I opted to return them and was disappointed to be charged $20.00 for doing so. I would not recommend buying from this sight unless you know your size.

these are my everyday shoes. i wear them for my walks, shopping, mowing, and yard work as they are very comfortable They are also the only tennis shoe I can afford that fits my narrow ankle. Being on a fixed income this is important along with the fact that they can last me for a good eight months before I buy another pair. Always have a spare pair on hand.

I do a lot of walking and these are really good on the feet, they are lightweight and wear well. They are true to size and fit really really good. I love the fact they are skid proof!!! I would for sure buy again!

Not sure if sizing is right one shoe is way loose than other. So they don't wear comfortable so may be returning.

I have a foot injury and have to use a custom orthotic. The New Balance shoe has room for the insert without cramping my toes, and the removable insole allows me to put it in.

I have worn 608s for more than 10 years. It was and still is a great shoe; straight last, roomy toe, good heel. However, the several shoes I just purchased have "Comfort Insert"s that have all sorts of hard-to-notice-unless-you-pull-the-insert-out texturing and cushioning clumps that mess up the feel of the shoe for the bottom of the foot. For those of you that know this shoe (and most of other shoes I have bought from NB), the insole insert was flat and plain and just fine. I can't wear the shoe with this new insert so what to do? I've looked up NB insoles - there are 16 of them! and they all are close to the cost of a new shoe. A nuisance of time and money. I've reached out to NB but my question has been blown off. Am I the only one put off by this "improvement"?
