I have always ordered New Balance shoes in wide for exercise, but these shoes are a little more narrow and not comfortable. The Saucony width is better and very comfortable.
I'd also recommend:
SAS, Birkenstock, Monroe

I really like the shoes. The only thing I can think of that would make them better is if I could get them with pink shoelaces.

The shoe has a nice wide toe area and is very comfortable. True to size.

The last time we ordered shoes they were made in America. Now they are made overseas. They shoes are not the same quality and they squeak every time you take a step

I like the comfort and fit of the New Balance 608v5 Leather Men's shoe, and have received several favorable comments about their appearance over the past several weeks since I purchased them.

I'm been buying New Balance for years and really like them but this pair is really bad. Got them a few days before vacation. Around the house they felt stiff. Well I thought it was going to loosen up while on vacation. My feet where killing me walking around the places we stopped at couldn't wait to get back and take these shows off. I've worn the same size for years and that's what I ordered.

I have fairly flat and wide feet and so awhile back I decided to give these a try in size 9 Extra Wide. They're very comfortable and they've held up well. So I got myself another pair!

I love this shoe model - 608 Cross Trainer. It is very reasonably priced and the shoe is perfect for high impact aerobics, running, HIIT, walking, whatever you do. The shoe provides excellent shock absorption and arch support without being bulky. It is nice looking feminine shoe. Depending on how active you are, the shoe will last 6-12 months before breaking down.

I've been wearing New Balance sneakers for 20+ years & will continue to do so, when you find a brand that checks all the boxes why look elsewhere. Support American made

Learning to walk again after almost dying from Sepsis that formed in my heel. My sneaker ( like my new ones) caught on the bar under my dining chair the chair fell on top of my heel . Couple of weeks later it became septic and I almost died. Coma for 3 days. Now in rehabilitation trying to walk with a walker. Fell last week and broke collar bone and T6 vertebrae. But I still like my New Balance sneaker. It's been a long process to come back to life again.

I bought these hoping that the sizing would be consistent with my other New Balance walking/running shoes. I was very pleased that they were a good fit although I was a little surprised that they weren't as well cushioned as I would have liked. But with a thick pair of workout socks they are fine and as long as they fit comfortably that is good enough for me.

I'm afraid this is the first pair of NB that I can't wear-- the shoe is incredibly hard-- the sole is hard. I should have bought a different pair-- indeed, I should have bought it in a NB store which we have here in NAples, FL. Sorry-- ordinarily NB is perfect for me.

I bought these shoes to replace my worn-out pair that I had been buying for years by no longer available. They are comfortable, but do not give as much support in the heel to keep my plantar fasciitis quiet.

I've been wearing New Balance 608 for several years now. I have inserts and spinal /ortho issues and these shoes are a great fit for me! They fit well and help my back as well. I have tried on others but none compare! Thanks for making a great product. Just wish they had more color variety to go with my wardrobe since I have to wear them most of the time for work.
