Bought these as a gift for my husband. He loves them! Very comfortable for every day wear. Feel great on his feet. Lots of support. Best shoes he's worn in a long time! We'll be buying more of these!

I've been buying black leather NewBalance cross trainers for thirty years. The style has changed slightly over the years, but they are basically still the same good quality training shoe they have always been. I appreciate that NewBalance still makes a plain black shoe for us normals.

I was told in the store that the discontinued 624s have been replaced by the 608s. The 608s have been around for some time so that makes no sense. As well, the 608 is quite different from the 624. Compared to the 624, the 608 is stiffer, heavier and most significantly narrower fitting in the toe area. I wish the 624s were still available.

I usually buy these shoes when i need a new pair. Purchased these shoes about 1 month ago and the right toe is separating already. not happy.

I got double wide, and the width mainly goes to the toes and not the centre of the foot. It pinches a bit in the middle making them slightly less comfortable. Besides that I think these shoes are comfortable

Fits well true to size quality defiantly nice as expected comfortable to wear. A little concerned about keeping a show with this much white on it clean.

Had bought size 7 and ended up with nail bed bruising when I replaced my size 6.5. So bought a 7.5 and they feel slightly loose but better than causing nail bed bruising for being too small. Didn't realize two years isolation with bare feet because of the pandemic would cause feet to grow a full size.

When my initial purchase had a defect in workmanship after just five months of periodic use, I asked for a replacement and was given a $30 voucher. Not amused! I had to duct tape the shoe which has become a walking advertisement for New Balance. The new pair will hopefully last longer.

I've tried them all over the years, even the "signature" brands, nothing makes my feet feel better, which makes me feel better....a real no brainer, plus I feel more stable in them. It doesn't get any better than that for me and my shoes!

I wore 624 for years and really liked them. This is my second pair of 608 and they are not nearly as good. The cushion is less and never molds to my feet the way the 624 did. Why does New Balance discontinue such a popular shoe. NB did the same with my hiking shoe. I will be looking around for other options when time to buy my next trainer.

This sneakers are light, good looking and ready to wear. Fortunately they don't scream at you the brand. I also wear the 990 and used to wear the 1080. I wish NB would bring back less flashy colors and more wearable with suits. Just simple black both in the 990 or the 10 1080 and the possibility to costumize your own colors.

These New Balance 608s are probably the best athletic shoes available on the market. Well made with a great fit.

Before you think it's horrible that the show only lasted that short of time, let me explain. I work in a factory standing on my feet 8-10 hours a day. Floor is concrete, and I don't move from my work station very much. I bought these shoes in April. I wore them everyday since, as they are literally my only pair of shoes. I'm very hard on shoes and I'm usually having to buy a new pair just about every 3-4 months. I'd say I got my $$ worth. Will be buying another pair.

The lace holes seemed spaced far apart. Which caused the shoe too bunch up some when you tightened. The sole seemed less rugged for my use in pickleball.
