They are supposed to have the nice comfortable memory insole, however they feel like I'm walking on rocks. These could be a bad pair, but I certainly prefer the 619s, which never seem to be available in the size I need. Time to try a new shoe brand?

I'll be sending them back. I have another pair of this same style (608v4w) that fit perfectly. These 608v5's do not. They were way too tight across the ball of my foot. SO I'm very disappointed.

I wear these shoes every day, and 608v4 fit perfectly. I bought v5 and could not wear them for eight hours. Something's changed across the ball of the foot. The toe box is looser and allowed my foot to roll when walking. I bought these for a walking trip and could barely make it through the grocery store.

I bought my 608's on August 11, 2019 and today is September 23, 2019. They have already worn away on the inside wall by the heal. I don't get it. They're just about six weeks old. Too bad, now I have to be honest and tell other consumers about poor of quality of the shoe. I've always wore New Balance for decades. They were my "Go To shoe " but not any more. :(

I order the 608V5 in Black size 9 2E. Upon the first lace up, one lace loop on the right shoe pulled out immediately.
I returned the shoes.
New Balance: PLEASE bring back the 608V4 mid height, one of your BEST all around designs.

The left shoe was slightly smaller than the right! Or, maybe the right was slightly larger. In either case, both shoes were too short (the left, slightly more so). I had to send it back.

This was my 3rd purchase of a 7W shoe. My previous two purchases fit perfectly. This shoe is so big, it was uncomfortable to wear. The sides did not support my foot at all. It was much, much wider than a regular wide fit shoe. I have since returned the shoe and gone into the store for a fitting and to purchase a new trainer that fit better.

I have bought this shoe for several years,but now they changed it. It has no arch support and it is flat on the ground, it is very uncomfortable. The shoe store gives me a 10 wide because I wear solo arch supports, but in this shoe it is very uncomfortable and it makes my feet slide down in the shoe causing corns on the end of my toes, which is very painful. I cannot wear them.. I just got them 2 weeks ago and they are useless. Worst New Balance shoe you ever made. I want my money back. Linda

I put the new shoes on and the left one felt different - turns out that the left shoe had a right foot in-sole jammed in it - very uncomfortable.

On New Balance site did a search for 'slip ons' and this shoe came up. When I received the sneaker it was a lace up show and due to recent surgery is not good for me. I had to return the sneakers.

you keep changing the 608's. you first version was the best. I cannot find a white tennis shoe that fits my needs. I stand in one place on concrete for 5 or 6 hrs. I need a good shoe with solid support and comfort. I am not comfortable with most shoes that have arch supports. it has been very difficult for me to find a good shoe.
