Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5

Have been wearing 608's for years and thought I would change. Ordered a pair of 574's. Returned them and ordered another pair of 608's

Fit great , fast delivery

Purchased for my husband who is a hard fit, being extra wide. He always chooses NB and these sneakers worked very well. Much better looking with the black laces; makes the shoes look less "clumpy." Good Job New Balance. Thanks, Zappos for having the right shoes and great service.

I use these for HIIT workouts, and I love the sole cushion. Great support for plank twists, skaters, and the like. The shoe helps support those awkward missteps in lunges or off-balance movements when I am burned out and just want it to be over. I am confident I won't roll and ankle, so I can think about the workout and not worry about the shoe. The sole is nice and non-abrasive for workouts on carpet in my basement. I usually wear the NB 806 for workouts (great lateral support), but the MX608 gives the support I need for a lot less $$.

If you want a shoe that ranks up there with other super-supportive overpronation shoes with ample toe box, but costs a whole bunch less, try these. You have big-time foot problems with a limited budget? And no, they do not look like orthopedic shoes. They are probably a bit clunky for running shoes, but everyday wear? This is for you. I love 'em.

These shoes are great. A little more arch support would improve them, but all in all they are comfortable.

Always pleased with New balance shoes. Have worn them for many years. Always look for Bargains, or sales on the 608's. They are my favorites of all the New Balance styles. Zappos shipping is just wonderful, faster than going to the store.??

It felt tight at first but after wearing around the house all was well.

The shoe is very comfortable and fits perfectly. I wii buy this shoe again. Thank you.

I use them for playing tennis. Very comfortable and supportive.

Closer to the original toe box - I have worn basically the same shoe for years until they changed the toe box about 4-5 years ago and it was no longer comfortable - pressing on my right small toe. These seem to be back to the original toe box design. The only ding in the comfort rating is that the insole is decent but not great. It can be pulled out though and replaced with a custom insert if you have one. The heel cushioning has broken down inside one of the shoes pre-maturely which was a surprise to me having owned similar for years and that I wear the Dunham dress shoe brand of New Balance every day. I just called Zappos and they are sending out a replacement pair - far more than I expected. Thanks for great customer service!!!!

I wear an 18 4E and not an easy shoe to find , but these were the best feeling shoe I have had on my feet in years. Would recommend this style to anyone not as boxey as most shoe my size so I don't have to look like I have Herman Munster feet. The feel, fit, and style are amazing I give them a 4.5 stars.
