Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5

Everyday shoe. Seems crazy that I am instructed to write more as if I am wearing every day that should say it all...

Great looking shoe , but it was too small even though I ordered my correct shoe size.

Everything about this pair of shoes meets the quality and feel of other New Balance Shoes that were purchased.

I am using these sneakers at work with casual. They are a little narrow towards front compared to the other colors.

Great comfort and fit perfectly as always. Just wish the price was better.

Good fit, comfortable for working out and wears well. Bought Wide, which was good choice. Holds up well, plenty long shoelaces! Sneaker is a little heavy if using just for walking,

Very happy with my 608 sneakers, good fit and support!

I have been wearing these sneakers for quite a while and until this pair, was very happy. I don't know what happened with this pair, but the feel more like cardboard glued together than the quality material I am used to. I will be trying another pair and hope that the quality is better.

I bought these shoes as a gift for my husband. He needs good walking sneaks and usually wears the 840 sneakers but these were on sale.

I love NB sneakers, but I'm the kind of guy who likes to touch, feel and try on things that I'm buying. I've worn NB for the last 40 years, but I find that a 7/12 Wide is not the same in all models. A double E is too wide in this particular model. I usually have to try on several pairs at the store till I have a 7 1/2 wide that fits properly. Otherwise NB is still No. 1 in my book.

I use this type of shoe regularly for volunteering and in the gym. New Balance is not my favorite but the sale was to good to miss. The shoes are comfortable but I need a thicker sock to make them a really good fit

I have difficulty getting shoes that fit. I have ordered New Balance before and came back again. The fit was great. I had to take a slightly different color scheme than I wanted because they didn't have the exact color scheme in my size but I am very satisfied.

I like these shoes. The tops are a little higher than most walkers I've worn, so they might work for short hiking. My left foot has been sprained several times, and this higher top will hopefully keep the foot from turning. Definitely order one-half size up. I purchased comfort insoles for these shoes, and need every bit of space.

I had to replace my 854s and this seems close to them. After 15 years, the 854s developed holes in the toes, the leather separating from the stitches. I hope that the 608v5 lasts as long. The 608v5 is as comfortable as the 854s. I had to get a half size larger than usual to get a good fit in the toe box.

Good fit,well made shoe. Fast service and accurate sizing.

I use this product for work and am on my feet all day, I ordered 4e and they appear to be narrower than previous 4e 608s I have used and there appears to be a hard spot on the soul of right shoe.

I try to walk 3 miles a day shoe gets a little small at the end of my walk.

Overall a good fit an high quality product. Used primarily for my morning dog walking activities and were comfortable first time out.

This shoe is for everyday use, not for running or training. I like the style.

Ok, so 608 was my go to shoe for YEARS. Then New Balance tweaked something and this shoe became awful to wear for the hours a day I wear them (8 hours a day on my feet). So I switched to KSwiss for a few years. Then they too, tweaked their shoe and it became awful to wear. I decided to revisit the New Balance 608, because I wanted a wide shoe, which I had not had in the KSwiss. The shoe fits wonderfully! My feet have plenty of room without the shoe being floppy. So why the 4 stars? The insert is thin and offers no cushioning for being on your feet for hours. I purchased a separate pair of inserts made for shock absorbing and replaced the inserts that came with the 608s and now for the most part, my feet feel fine! The most comfortable that my feet have felt in a very very long time, so with new inserts, I will definitely become a regular customer again!

good looking every day footwear they feel good on my feet
