My husband loves these athletic shoes! He has worn 608s for many years. This is probably his 7th or 8th pair. They hold their comfort and support, he just designates older ones for yard work. So he usually has a new pair, a little used pair and very used pair all going at once. All through the years they maintain their stability for his shaky ankles. This is the first time we have ordered from the New Balance website. I signed up for rewards and this will be our go-to site for his wide foot from now on!

These 608's over the years have served me well. Comfortable well padded and light weight, they propelled me many miles without failure. Great cushioned heal and sole. I've actually purchased so many of these shoes over the years enjoying their comfort. Who needs Wingtips anymore? Gave away all the suits too.

I used to wear the 608v4 which was a little heavier shoe. This new version is lighter and just as durable and fits better in my opinion. I like the color logo "N" along with the other color accents. I'm a really big guy so a sturdy well balanced shoe is very important to me. I get great arch support and cushion for comfort. It says these are leather uppers, not sure but they hold up to my big ole body. I like them so much I bought 4 pairs.

Fit great, look good. As old guy, wear them in black, comfortable, and can sneak them in as dress shoes. Very easy to order and quick delivery.

Only the top looks like the original 608. The new sole is different. It is very flat and seems to be made more cheaply. I returned the shoes.

Good fit because of E sizes; Other brands are way too narrow. Quality is first rate, I have used the NB brand for years.

After looking and looking for a pair of great fitting shoes, I've finally found them in these. Great fit, they look fantastic and they give me support at my job. I'm on my feet all day and walking a lot. I would highly recommend.

New Balance is the only shoe I can order in 10.5 AA that fits me perfectly. I have to remove the insole to allow for my custom orthotics but the support is great!

Have been buying New Balance regularly, usually suede though. I liked the look of the black leather and bought those this time for my walking. Comfortable and true to size and remind me of my old coaching days on the sidelines.

Perfect shoe for me. The 12.5 Extra Wide is almost impossible to fine. That's why now have four pair.

i keep 2 pairs in order to keep at least one pair clean for wearing out, but wear daily and they really halp my feet, legs, and back. I tried those cheaper ones with memory foam and my back was hurting in only 2 days and had to go back to New Balance.

Needed something more for winter without having to get snow boots. These are so comfortable and will keep my feet dry and warm. Good track shin for the weather.

Needed a pair of sneaker like shoes in black for our uniform at the golf course. Retired, 66 years old working 2-3 days per week at bag drop, on my feet the entire time. Of the 3 pairs of sneakers I've tried, the 608 is the only one which completely relieves the discomfort I have with the mid metatarsal.
