Customer Reviews New Balance WX608v5

I have a problem getting blisters on my left foot. Not sure if it is my foot or the shoe.

I've tried numerous times to call to get return label for bigger size. On hold way to long.

The fit is as described and very comfortable I will Buy more.

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.

New Balance is not the best, most comfortable or most durable shoe around, but it's the only one I can find sold in honest widths. I have a wide foot and, as a result, have worn nothing but New Balance for years. They are OK.

Fit is accurate. Feel a bit bulky to me for walking but perhaps I'll get used to them. Comfortable as always

After having a bad experience with Asics, I turned back to New Balance to get my shoes, so I got my hands on a pair of these at a cheap sports shop on Yonge and Steeles in Size 11.5 2E. It fits me very well and isn't too hard on the ankles. Nothing too special, but it's a very good budget shoe for general use. I hope my next shoe buying experience is just as good as the one I had recently with this shoe.

Great walking shoes for my daily hikes on the island

I love my new balance shoes. I am not a shoe hog by any sense of the word. I have one pair of dress boots, one pair of snow boots, one pair of sandals and one pair of tennis shoes. My last pair of new balance did me proud for 12 years but the soles were well worn and it was time for some new shoes. Ones with traction. I love that new balance offers wide width shoes, they are hard to come by. I like my new pair though the insoles could have more cushioning. I wore the a few times on errands to break them in and then went out for a walk on our first nice day. I ended up with blisters on the balls of both of my feet right near my toes. Now I need for them to heal before my next foray, which will be to the store to buy some cushy insole inserts.

Need a shoe with a wide toe box. On my feet 10 - 12 hrs daily. Till the end of the day, ties feel cramped. Also may be this style but a list weight.

I have worn the same size New Balance for 40+ years. i ordered these shoes and they are about 1/2 size too small. I will see if they stretch over time.

Love the 608 for what it is. Faithful consumer for 20 years. New Balance is better when made in USA.

I have not used at this point but will very shorty

I have purchased these shoes before, I liked them as they were comfortable, and light weight. I had yo return these as I needed a half size bigger. Shoes are the right size, its just now I have to wear a brace on my right foot, and I needed a half size larger then I ordered.

Needs more arch support, and for a 4E it was too narrow. I put shoe stretcher in one to make it wider. Takes a month or so to stay stretched, so I'll know in a week if it's going to work out.

Super comfortable walking shoe. Unfortunately white only....

Padding in arch support could be improved. Otherwise, these are very satisfactory.

Great for my on-line home walking program. It's not just walking. we move all around forward/backwards, side to side, etc. These cross trainers are great esp with the ball of foot support in the insole. Very happy I purchased them.
