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

I have long worn New Balance 624. No longer available so have ordered 608's in two sizes, neither of which fit.

I have been wearing new balance for many years - 813's and they were great. When I looked for them recently I couldn't find them so I ordered another one. I ordered wide which I have always done and when I got them, they were so tight they pinched my toes. I sent them back, very uncomfortable.

I ordered a 13-Wide. These do not fit properly. Even though they're marked as being a size 13, they fit like a size 12.

I bought two pairs of these sneakers save your money if you want an authentic leg brace cannot get them on over the brace

I bought these shoes a little under six months ago and the shoes are now seperated from their bottoms and I can stick my finger right through it

Sole of sneaker came unglued after two weeks of use. Would not purchase again. Company needs better quality control.

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"?

I bought these for walking but they are very uncomfortable. Not alot of padding and seem to run narrow. If you want sturdy sneakers these are for you!

I use this sneaker at the gym. Have been wearing these for years however they weren't made very well this time. They have no support. I need a narrow so these are the shoe I have been wearing. There isn't much of a choice in narrow. Very disappointing.

I have purchased many shoes from you folks and the quality of this recent pair is not good. I have only been wearing them for two weeks and the sole of the right shoe has already come loose in the front.

So unbelievably uncomfortable. There was this weird part that kept poking me and the sole of the shoe was hard and unforgiving. Walked for 10 minutes in them and my back hurt worse than usual.

Didn't realize these weren't leather. They are also bulkier than I expected. I was looking for a sleeker, more low profile look. Unfortunately I will be returning these.

Disappointed it was supposed to be the pink ones. Not the blue/gray. Pink/ gray is what I ordered
