I needed supportive, comfortable walking sneakers for my daily fitness walk. These cross trainers more than met my expectations. As advised on the site, I ordered a half size up. The fit was perfect. I could walk all day in these shoes. An added bonus, they're a great looking sneaker.

Very nice shoe - well made and sturdy - good price, too for that type of shoe. Unfortunately, they just didn't fit right - a tad too narrow - to be comfortable and I am returning them.

I love them. I love them. I love them. They arrived quickly, they fit very well and are very comfortable. They look exactly as pictured. When I've worn them out, I'll be back to replace them. And yes, I would recommend them to a friend.

Great ankle support for walking. I have ankle problems with tenditis and arthritis and this shoe helps me walk a mile every day without pain. It is made of leather and stays dry in the rain. It lasts 8 months or more with daily walking. I wear these all day evey day for several years and these shoes will always be my walking shoes. They are very comfortable. I have a large bunion and the wide size is great.

Too wide through the toe box area of the shoe. I always use PowerStep insole, so need sneakers with a removable insert; the insoles in these sneakers are not removeable - a fact I must have overlooked if it was in the description. Finally, I generally prefer sneakers that have lace eyelets closer together so I can adjust a tighter fit around the arch than these. Nice looking shoe, though. Sorry they didn't work out for me.

I bought these for a friend and she loves them. She said they are so totally comfortable. She wears an 8 1/2 wide and they are a perfect fit.

Shoes arrived within days. Been buying them for years. Only shoes I use as I am a walker and they are the perfect fit for me. Love buying American too.

Lasted me a long time, 7 months exactly! if it weren't for the fact the inside began to fade and rip a bit, I would continue to wear them. I would highly recommend for long shifts! Easy to clean too!

Glad to have a found a shoe maker that makes a shoe that fits my feet. Many ate too narrow. This was a medium shoe that fits my foot perfectly!

Have now two pairs of shoes that fit perfectly on my wide feet, always had to choose shoes bigger at least by one number to address this issue and no more. It would be good if the New Balance would start a new line, new models of shoes to wear to office and casual working environment.
Both pairs are well made, good components and good look.

I bought these for my 18 year old as comfortable as they are he says he expected them to look different he says they look like old man shoes but having wide big feet you can't beat the price point it would be nice if maybe you guys modernized the outside design of the shoes big footed young men would thank you

This is a great hiking shoe for me and meets all my podiatrist's recommendations; HOWEVER, there has always been a major problem with proper sizing!
I usually wear 9.5 B. Ordered, full size or more too large. Ordered replacement with a narrow width and this felt and fit great!!! Reordered the narrow after a year and I could not get my foot into them. Replaced with a B width which fit okay EXCEPT no toe room! I will be searching at the local sporting shop to see if there is another style for me that will work. Very disappointed that the sizing is not more consistent!!!

I have been wearing 608's for years. Also have a pair of brown suede V3 and also white V4's that I usually wear. They are comfortable and last a long time. Really like how my new V5's feel. A little more stylish than my other pairs.

These shoes were the first I ever bought from New balance and realized it was the perfect brand for me. I have a tendency to lose my balance and these shoes help make sure my feet stay firmly on the ground. I've bought many different styles but have gone back to this specific because of my very first experience I love these shoes.

I really like the 608 style of New Balance. I have had a hard time finding them in stores. I am happy to see you had them online. I use this style shoe when I do my walks. I have tried other New Balance shoes for my walk but I wasn't happy. Thanks
