I've worked jobs that keep me on my feet for over 20 years, and the 608 is the shoe I always come back to. They're sturdy, comfortable, and always well made.

I have had dozens of pairs of new balance shoes over the years. I found the fit on these to be a bit sloppy compared to a couple of my current pairs. I also did not like the weight of the shoes. I don't feel they will be as breathable as I like.

The shoes run too small. I have a 12.5 and my big toe barely fits inside the shoe. I had to go out and buy thin socks just so I can wear these shoes. So, that's an added expense that I incurred for buying these shoes. I gave it two stars because I like the shoes otherwise.

Inconsistent manufacturing led to poor fit. I've had 3 pair of this model and with this order, the size feels at least a half size too large. Could not wear them.

This is my all around working sneaker (you know, working around the house, mowing the yard, etc) and its the perfect shoe. Fit was great and it is comfortable enough to wear all day. HIGHLY recommended.

Use these in the office and are comfortable for normal walking pace. My feet dont feel tired at the end of the day. The shoe provides a bit of free space so that your feet arent tight but snug enough.

My 28 disabled (CP) son wears these shoes with his AFO orthotics. It is very difficult to source shoes to wear with them because they make his feet much bigger than normal. But these don't make him look like he has clown shoes on. They are very sturdy and inconspicuous in the plain white color.

It's an okay shoe. Billed as a cross trainer. It doesn't have enough support for that. Even with my prescription insoles. The laces are much too long for the shoe, and must be double-tied. Even then they are too long. These are my first NB in a few years, and I think the quality has diminished.

I need a wide toebox because of going barefoot a lot (my toes have splayed.) These are wider than average without looking like Mickey Mouse shoes.

I was pleased with everything , but the shoe laces. They were way to long for the shoes.
