Customer Reviews New Balance 608v5

I love my New Balance shoes! They fit great and feel wonderful! I loved wearing them to go hiking!

I can now physically walk without pain in knees. They have helped my back also. Don't feel the need to use cane as often. I am looking at different colors too. Thank you new balance for a dependable shoe, well made , true to size too

I purchased these online to be my everyday work shoes. I probably should have gone a half-size smaller, but they are comfortable and wear well.

I have been buying this type shoe for 20 years. I can get it in wide and it is comfortable. I can use them a long time before they have to be thrown away. I gave it a four stars because for the last 5-10 years there has been a tendency for the glue on the soles of these shoes to let loose. Not always and not on all shoes, but it is a problem. Also, the interiors don't last more than about five months without developing holes in the fabric. I use shoe goop to re-glue the soles and ignore the holes in the fabric. So, could be better but as good as anything else I've found.

I really liked the look and overall feel of the shoe, but the toe box was just a bit too tight for me. I wear a 10.5 Regular, but sometimes need just a little extra room near the toes. These rubbed my little toes just a little too much so I had to return them (and was promptly refunded - thanks New Balance!).

I believe this is the third time I've ordered this shoe for my son. He has wide flat feet and has collapsing ankles. He wears an ankle brace orthotic support device and these shoes work great with that.

These shoes have thus far proven to be comfortable, and durable.

I find that the 608 cross trainers feel great on my feet, giving me just enough wiggle room in the toe. My only wish is that they were also offered in the colors khaki, navy, and black.

I'm glad I ordered 2 different shoes. The current 608 is stiffer and narrower enough to be uncomfortable. The 624 in the exact same size was a perfect fit.

Very stiff very uncomfortable hoping it breaks in better not happy and very disappointing

Love the shoes. I ordered my normal size. Great fit and support. Didn't realize how bad my old shoes looked.

This is not as comfortable as the brown/tan version that I always bought. I guess I'll have to search for another brand of comfortable shoes. So long New Balance it was nice to know you for the past 12 years.

I purchased this shoe as it was similar to the New Balance 600 that I have gotten before from LL Bean and I have not shopped locally as our community is not good at observing COVID protocol. It has a little different shape but the shoes are working fine.

I wear these just about everyday. I was pleasantly surprised the first time I put them on. Nice cushion, fit is what I expected. Gave only 4 stars because I haven't had them long enough to see how well they last. I would recommend these shoes.

Very comfortable I wish the retail stores carried the size 14 wide, most go to a 12 reg,

These are my husband's "go to" work shoes! He has worn this particular style for years. When they wear out we order more. He won't wear any other kind

I have worn New Balance athletics shoes for over 25 years. The fit is excellent and work well during my gym workouts and weekend walking trips.

I've worn these shoes about 10 times. They have taken a little more break in time than my Footjoys normally do.

nice fit for my wide feet. try looking at others but yours fit the best

The shoes are wonderful!! Very easy to slip into, I'm glad I purchased them

When I received the package the new shoes fit like the we're custom made for my foot. No break in needed. Fit perfectly the first time. I used to buy the 857 style, but the 806 is now my go to shoe

I'm on my feet all day. These shoes are great fit.
