Customer Reviews New Balance WX608v5

I’ve worn this version shoe for years, however these shoes are a tad shorter than my others. Uncomfortable as my toes touch the front. Weird. They changed something.

After first putting them on I felt they were comfortable. The bottoms are firm'ish and feel like they have some sort of gel in them which I thought would help my feet after wearing them for long hours. Unfortunately after 2 weeks of wearing these I cannot stand it anymore. I'm a nurse and stand for long periods of time and I've been having foot and back pain after wearing these to work. Based on the reviews I thought these would be great for me but apparently not.

I thought that since WX608V4 has been discontinued that this model would be the next best thing. It is nothing like the 608V4. I was very disappointed. Not sure where to go to to the same great fit as the 608V4.

Although attractive, this sneaker in person is very clunky and stiff. I purchased 7W because I have a high in-step, the sneakers run at least a half size too big and VERY wide, my foot slipped out as I walked. I was hoping for some good arch support and fair amount of cushion, they are not.

I was so disappointed in the fit of this shoe! The 8.5 was too long and so big, it slipped all over my foot. I exchanged them for an 8, but that pair was so short, my toes hit the end of both shoes. Too bad — it’s nice looking with a trim and sporty profile. Oh, well, I’ll just have to keep looking.

the shoe felt very heavy and clunky. I'm a size 9 narrow in regular shoes and generally a 9.5 narrow in running shoes. I order the 9.5, but perhaps the 9 would've been a better fit, still even if they were a little more snug I can't imagine they'd be comfortable. They're going back.

I've only had these sneakers for a short time, they feel worn out and hurt my heal. The narrow width STRETCH out so much, weird. Not worth the cheap price, I'd rather buy better sneakers for more money but last longer.

Too small overall. No wonder they were so cheap

We got these shoes for the spring tennis season for my high schooler. The entire front of the shoes has come apart less than 4 weeks into season. The stitching came completely out. Yes they are lightweight and seem to have a very durable sole but what good is that when the whole toe comes apart like it was made on 5 minute crafts troll channel. I used to swear by new balance. These does are too expensive to have to purchase a new pair every month.

Shoes in box are. not size 7. I think they are 7 1/2 in the wrong box.

This was supposedly a narrow shoe but it’s not narrow at all. Waste of money

Very stiff and uncomfortable with no support whatsoever.

Not enough support for me, I only wore them a couple of times

right foot too snug at ankle

The shoes I received are not 10.5 wide. I have an older pair of that size and these are demonstrably smaller

The toe box was too narrow.
