I have the same breakfast every day so I was a little disappointed that the 577 was phased out and not available but they're not bad and I'm pretty sure I'll get used to them.

I have one pair for going to town , and one pair for working in the yard, and together I average more than 5 miles a day of walking. The shoes fit my feet very well, and are very comfortable and supportive. My only complaint is that the adhesive used to hold on the front and rear wraps gives out long before the shoes wear out, and once they come lose there's nothing I can do to repair them.

Husband wears them. They are really good shoes for the type of work he does. The only thing is the breaking in period is difficult for someone who is on his feet all day.

It felt smaller than what I currently have in a similar shoe. It may be stretch. Holding on to them until I need to replace my older ones.

Found these great shoes on a sales rack, my size. Size 8 I wish I could find another pair. I'm pretty picky how my sneakers fit and these were comfortable from the minute I put them on. Wore them all summer, and now looking for another pair. Please consider continuing these stylish and super comfy sneakers!!

Would give 5 stars, as for comfort, however they seem to break down faster than they did before. I have been wearing this shoe for many years. I have had 2 back surgeries, and Stage 4 throat cancer surgery, and look for comfort, in all products I purchase. Will keep purchasing, just wish I could get more than 8 or 9 months out of the shoe.

The product could use more cushion, but other than that, it's a pretty nice shoe.

normally take a size 14 EEEEE, ordered that size & it was too small. Traded for a 15 EEEE, the length is perfect, they could be a little wider but they will stretch out a little. Just proves the are making them smaller to save a few bucks. It's the manufacturer, not the retailer. Found this to be true with Sketchers brand also.

Still need some time to form an opinion on these. I have custom orthotics & am currently using them without the cushion insoles that come with the shoes. All good so far!

I love the 608 for fit and comfort. The only thing that keeps this from being 5 stars is the lack of colors available in suede. In the past, I have purchased suedes in black, blue, and gray. I miss them.

I needed a new pair. My last NB lasted at least 7-8 years. this time I ordered wide width due to swelling of my leg. They fit fine, but still a little tight around the toe area.

I'm happy with this product model so far, but I am still breaking them in. But so far so good!

I use the 608's for cross training only. Had to cut the insole in half & insert my Birkenstock Birko Balance arch supports as there is no "built in arch". I've been wearing the 857 series for years & thought I'd give these a try. I'd read they would be good for those with high arches & supinate. They are quite comfortable but the sole is very light weight & don't have much support.

Just what I expected, a great shoe. The fit is good but is runs a little wide at the heel.

The 608 V5 will be a general wear product but not on a daily basis. Like the 608 V4s, they provide comfort but more important, support. These seem to be a bit wider than the 608 V4 but not so much that my foot moves a lot in the footbed. For daily use, I don't anticipate a problem, but if I were to use these for weight or cross training, it might be different - especially if side loading with lateral bounds and such. The soles are fairly skid resistant on 'normal' surfaces, too!
