I have purchase at least five pairs of this style of shoe. I like how they look, fit and hold up. I am 6’ 2” 245 lbs. so I am not a small guy. These shoes are very comfortable.

I am very happy with my recent purchase from Zappos. I wear orthotics and they fit the new shoes just perfect. I wore them the first day all day with no problems. I have purchased several pair of NB shoes from Zappos and will do so again. Zappos as always has the shoes at my door almost before I order them. I have been a Zappos customer for years and will remain that way for a long while. "Thanks Zappos" !

I walk every morning in these shoes and wear them to any outside activities. They are light and comfortable and when they get worn looking I rotate them to yard shoes. Also they don't cost an arm and a leg.

I wear a size 16 sneaker and they are not easy to find. I have been ordering the New Balance 608 sneakers for several years now. I find them very comfortable, a good fit, and comfortable to wear on long hikes.

Couldn't find any basketball shoes in wide size for my daughter. These were great the leather gives her the performance of a basketball shoe. The wide width was perfect. She was playing basketball with mesh running shoes and kept rolling her feet. Until NB makes basketball shoes these are a good option.

New Balance is the only sneaker brand I have bought for the last 10 years. Even in my size 14 4w. They always fit consistently and last the longest

New Balance is consistent with their sizes and I got my usual size. After wearing the new shoes a few times they will break in for a perfect fit.

I just got them out of the box tried them on and they fit great. I tried places like Amazon and they are very limited as far as size and especially wide widths. I will be buying my shoes on here from now on. I am going to get them in black for work.
I'd also recommend:
I usually stick with new balance.

Have plantar fasciitis for 4 years,am a high rolling health care worker and on my feet 50 hours a week.Did ultra sounds, physical therapy, patches on my feet,sports tape on my feet and seriously love the shoes the moment i put them on.LOL I was trying to save some serious cash for future health care expenses by wearing good quality used ,and disinfected ,new looking top name brand shoes.. Epic fail. The old ones are in the trash,I am now a top dollar spender.I will enjoy reading all your reviews for my next pair,If your on your feet 50 plus hours working and have foot problems please point out some great shoes for me,thanks!

I reviewed this before but this needs to be said. please disregard my previous review. chalk it up to ignorance. this version of the 608 is far superior in comfort and fit. the polyurethane insole is very comfortable. while the toebox is a little narrower it is still a good fit widthwise. it also has more room for the instep area. it will also accomadate orthotics like the v4did.the only question I have is how long this shoe will last due to the faux leather construction. read in another review that sometimes the outsole will come unglued from the faux leather at the seam. will let you know how well it does for me. all in all a very good shoe. wore them for the first time at work for 10 hrs. on hard cement and they preformed excellently.

Wore the sneakers"out of the box" and on a concrete floor for eight hours and they felt great. I have worn New Balance for years and the fit was right. With leather uppers, the sneakers look great and the slip resistant soles worked like they should.

I bought these New Balance 608 to replace a pair of 609 I had for years. I bought exactly the same size. The 608 toe box is a little more narrow than the old 609, but the overall fit is very good.

I bought these for my husband because his last pair of Nikes were falling apart. He needs a wide shoe and they're not often easy to find in stores. He says the New Balance sneaks (he's Australian, so he says "trainers") are very comfortable. He likes the way they look as well. We're hoping they last longer than the Nikes, which are only about a year old.
