Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5

Close to an old pair of NB that I had sometime ago. Happy with purchase

I have long, wide, old feet -- hard to fit. I sent two completely different brands back before I got my New Balance shoes. NEW BALANCE TO THE RESCUE!!! These fit so well that taking my dog on 2-mile walks is so pleasant that my feet feel as well when we finish as when we started. The cushioning is quite sufficient for me, and the toe box is wide enough so that the sides of the show don't rub on my feet. The first time I put the shoes on, they were stiff and just Ok. BUT after three walks in them, they limbered up, and I now rate them as the best fitting, most comfortable tennis shoies I have owned -- ever.

Very nice looking shoes. Still breaking them in but I like them. comfortable.

I take these to the gym every day. They are great. The abzorb heel is great. I recommend these shoes to everyone. These are the best shoes ever. Thank you new balance for making this shoe. I will buy more in the future.

I was looking for a long time to buy myself a "Dad" pair of shoes. What else could be cooler than New Balance?! They're very comfy, materials are top notch, the Dad vibe is there. What else to say?

I work in these shoes, and they are pretty comfortable.

I have a high arch, wear a 6E and have been wearing New Balance for over 20 years. I have a supination problem, not a pronation problem. My current shoes are NB 624 which fit my feet just fine but NB no longer makes. The MX 608 does not come in a 6E. I am looking for a 6E shoe without a roll bar or any internal construction meant to help pronators. I would prefer a neutral shoe. It appears NB no longer makes a shoe that will accommodate my feet.

Wore out another pair of tennis shoes so I bought another pair. They were so tight across the toes i got blisters . Bought the new balance shoes, fit straight up! Extra comfortable, makes me super happy to find a pair that fits so well !

THESE ARE MUCH MORE DURABLE THAN MOST OTHER WALKING SHOES I HAVE TRIED RECENTLY. THEY LOOK GREAT TOO! KUDOS TO NEW BALANCE.

The shoes are comfortable, roomy, fit nicely. I like the looks of the shoe, and while fit is of most importance, if I don't like the looks, I won't wear them. My previous pair of 608s lasted for nearly 2 years and finally had to be retired. I like to have an extra pair on hand in case I have a catastrophic problem with the pair I'm wearing.

They're a Christmas gift.

Just a everyday shoe very comfortable I would definitely buy it again.

The spongy feel of the insole and side support of this shoe did not work well for this gym rat. I'll go back to my old pair for training. This new shoe might be better as a casual walker.

Good fit.

Love the product! Have been wearing this model for many years and continue to buy

I need full leather shoes due to handicapp!! I love these shoes just wish there was more selection to choose from in all leather tennis shoes!!!!

This is such a comfortable sneaker~the moment you put it on! It is long lasting, and looks good as well. I have a fairly large foot but it doesn't make my foot look big~ I got both the pink and the blue! Please don't ever take this sneaker out of your line!

Sole of sneaker came unglued after two weeks of use. Would not purchase again. Company needs better quality control.

I've been wearing this model for over 5 years. Last year, I was pleased to find that my employer recommended these shoes for my seasonal job that has me on my feet for 8+ hours, often on hard concrete. They are very comfortable and I highly recommend them for support.

Great fit and super comfortable. Would recommend to my friends and family!

Have worn these shoes and fit true to size.

This is my second pair of this shoe. I like the comfort and slip resistant quality for my mobile business that takes me into commercial kitchens frequently. Good job New Balance. Kenneth in Idaho

These shoes really work well for me! New Balance shoes are the only ones that don't kill my feet as I'm "breaking them in". They last a long time too! I do really long for the original 608's though!! They had a built-in insole that was perfect for me and WAY more comfortable than the stupid inserts that are used now. I really prefer New Balance over all other brands I've tried and for the money, the 608's are some of the best!

Love it
