Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5

Lve this sneaker; it's almost weatherproof--and I do walk in the rain. Love how its made.

This shoe fits true to size & is very comfortable. It's great having an all-white all-leather shoe instead of mesh.

I ordered these shoes for walking. I have worn NB shoes for years because they have been the best fit for me. I purchased these shoes because I wanted something with more leather for colder days. I have not used leather walkers for some time. These are well constructed and for the most part comfortable but they need breaking in unlike lighter more flexible styles. I do wish the toe box was a bit wider.

Wear just about everywhere, like the style and quality. Great AMERICAN MADE SHOE!!

I use the shoes for everyday and they do pretty good , but if I go for long walks there not as comfortable as my old New Balance. Not sure if they are still breaking in or not as much arch support.

I hate breaking in new shoes. My heel has been killing me but I think it was because my previous sneakers were broken down inside. My heel is now starting to feel better after I have worn these new ones for a few weeks. I just wish because of the type of work that I do they had a sole that was not quite so slippery on a wet floor.

This is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. This shoe is always consistently constructed and reliable. Never stop making it.

These shoes are the only ones that my feet love. Great fit and great support. I have very wide feet and it's difficult to find shoes that fit.

I wear them to play pickle ball and they are very comfortable! I keep them only for pickel ball! I am a long walker of 10-15 miles and I wear Teva sandles!!!! I am 78 years old!!

Fit good fast shipping order was exactly what I ordered I will buy another pair they fill good on my feet two thumbs up and five star treatment

These are very comfortable good fitting shoes. No break in period needed.

I call them my "all in all". They are whatever you want them to be. It doesn't matter if you are out for a jog or a casual walk or just want to sit back with your heels kicked up-this is your shoe. LOVE THEM

I have a narrow foot and it is hard to find athletic shoes in narrow widths. I wear these, (when new) to my silver sneakers class. When they get broke in good I wear them every day and buy new ones. They are very comfortable and support my foot very well. Won't buy anything other than New Balance

I've worn New Balance 609s for many years and they were the most comfortable shoes since I have foot problems. The quality of the new 608s is inferior. I noticed immediately when I picked up the box, it was so light it felt empty? I'm very disappointed because I could get online and order the 609s knowing they would fit and be comfortable from the beginning.

I like these shoes, I'm into my second pair, but I do have a question/comment/aggravation: why are the shoelaces so long? I tie them in a double knot with loops as big as possible without walking on them and still the lace tips are touching the ground. Can't you use shorter laces?

They are pretty comfortable. I doing a lot of walking on tiled floors, for my job, and so far so good.

They make my big toes hurt, but it may be a size issue. The NB outlet store would not measure my feet, which are changing, due to covid19. I traded in my usual size 13 for size 14, but they still hurt, so I will be returning them, again, a 50 mile round trip.

I use walking. Easy to slip on and off. I like them.

I am returning this sneaker as it is cut to high and very uncomfortable at my ankles

I work at a VA Hospital facility. I am in my shoes 16 hours a day. They fit and feel fantastic. Absolutely the best made shoe I have bought and worn. Will buy no other brand moving forward.

My go to everyday shoes. They provide support and are able to stand up to outdoor conditions in my flower and vegetable gardens.

Very comfortable love the fit and just my shoes. I will order again. Thanks New Balance.

The best shoe and I buy black, no slip so he can wear them to work like a dress shoe. The dress shoes kill his feet! I buy American Made!

The inside seams in the toe are protruding and rubbing my toes, making it uncomfortable to walk. This is not up to the quality of New Balance I had been buying. I wore them for several days, just to see if it was the stiffness of the new shoe. My toes said no-way. Bill
