I had previously ordered this shoe from another vendor in white and was quite happy with it - fit well, decent cushionin for a variety of training activities. I ordered another pair in black from NB directly but found it to be much stiffer and less cushioned than the white pair. Unfortunately, the black pair was returned.

I bought two pairs of exact same model/size...one black and one white. This model is the exact same shoe I have ordered for years. The black pair fit fine, the white pair was a whole size too large even though it said the correct size ordered. Returned the white pair and ordered a second pair 1/2 size smaller. They were so short my toes were jammed in the end. Returned them as well. The uunfortunate part is this is not the first time this has happened. Cannot understand how ordering two pair of the same model/size etc. And only different colors can always be so inconsistent in size. If this had been the first time it had happened I might be inclined to excuse it; however, it has occurred multiple times over multiple years. Sadly, will need to buy my shoes elsewhere.

Took a long time to receive Terrible shipping. Should have been told it would take so long.

I ordered replacements for my work shoes. The old ones had a pull tab that was large enough that I could slip my fingers into them. The replacments, the same model per the NB representative, did not have pull tabs that were large enough. This makes putting the shoes on a little more difficult for me.

I had a problem with two pairs of these but thought I'd give them another chance.

I currently have a pair of 608's, need new pair for new orthrodics. My measured shoe size is 9N. Ordered 9N, too small, ordered 9.5N, too small, ordered 10N too small (toe touching end).

I have always wornNB shoes in a 10 1/2 EE until recently. I ordered these in 10 1/2 but they are short so am returning them say my local LL Bean store and have reordered a pair in 11 EE.

These shoes fit perfectly but the laces are about 10 inches too long. Had to order some new laces or take the shoes back. I have a short wide foot so it's hard for me to even find shoes to wear.

I was concerned that the shoes I ordered might be a bit too long, but they were actually too tight all around. I just printed out my return label so I can send them back.

I have had dozens of pairs of new balance shoes over the years. I found the fit on these to be a bit sloppy compared to a couple of my current pairs. I also did not like the weight of the shoes. I don't feel they will be as breathable as I like.
