I've had multiple versions of the New Balance 608. All have been excellent shoes. I primarily wear them for working out; they are a very nice cross-trainer. When weight training they provide a solid, extremely stable foundation for squats and other exercises where balance is important.
I believe these run true to size. My previous pair (V3) were 10.5 4E. The new pair is 11 4E. I'm almost 65, so that stands to reason.

This is the second pair of New Balance cross trainers I've had because the first pair was the best for my feet. They are worth every penny and I will never change to a different brand!

I have had New Balance shoes for years --- I like the way they feel, fit, wear, and look. This particular style is all white --- very different looking and, for me, attractive.

I love my shoes. However I DO NOT like getting emails from your company telling me to celebrate PERVSION and sin, known as PRIDE Day/Month. GAG!

I bought these shoes because of the availability of the "wide" size option. However, the shoe narrowed as it went toward the toe. I need a wide size because my foot at my toes is very wide.
I purchased the shoes with confidence in the wide option. This time it didn't work.

This letter upper shoe wears extremely well and is well worth the price.

Having 20 pair of sneakers gives me a wide range of fits and styles to try at any time. These shoes are the most wearable shoes I've ever put on my feet. They are sturdy, comfortable, flexible, and made very well. The classic dad look is almost a badge of experience and I'm happy to wear these daily.

I recently purchased a pair of 608 shoes. I have purchased at least 7 pairs of 608's in recent years. I find them to be very comfortable and sturdy. They are also attractive. I am able to wear them for almost any occasion. The price for this quality of shoe is very reasonable

I have very long, narrow feet. New Balance is the only cross trainer that fits. I've worn them for years.

I expected the slightly smaller fit (seems to be true with all the sneaker companies, so I ordered large to compensate... very comfortable leather sneaker.

I really wanted these shoes. I ordered the size that I normally would based on other NB online purchases but when I tried them on, they were too short. I ordered Size 11 but it wasn't accurate. I was so disappointed as I thought these shoes looked great. I believed that if I had ordered the next available size, it would be too big.

I have been wearing the 608 shoe and its predecessors for many years (20+). When I started wearing them they were a good fit for me but as the years went by the width of the shoe changed (not the width of my foot) and they we no longer comfortable for me. I decided to change to a different color in the same shoe and low and behold the 608 with the royal blue N is a great fit for me. I can't tell you how happy this makes me. I have 2 bad knees, one of which is now metal, and a bad feeling shoe makes things worse. I have now purchased 2 pair of the same shoe and hope that this style doesn't change.
