Customer Reviews New Balance 680v6

Left shoe felt tight and toe felt thin. Otherwise very nice.

Fit OK. The fabric is allover stretchy, including most of the heel. The tie felt cheap. Less support than I would like. Feels like my big toe would poke through the fabric before too long.

Runs small, I will need to return them. Loved the Cashmere/Light Shale color.

These were too low in the toe box at the front of the shoe.

I have been wearing New Balance 8 1/2 W for years and love the 680. I immediately noticed the width of the toe box was sleeker and it did in fact fell snug. If it ain't broke don't fix it! I will wear with thinner socks for now.

It was a nice shoe and I liked the look, the feel on the outside but when I put it on it was short compared to all other New Balance shoes. An 8 New Balance will fit me with a thumb length at the end of my big toe but these my toe was to the end of the shoe so I don't know for sure if that is a half size or a full size smaller then normal. Other than that the shoe was nice in fit and looks.

I have special inserts from foot levelers that I use for the arch support, so most shoes fit perfect. These were on the list for underpronation, so I gave them a try. The shoes are very comfortable but do not have any support for supination. I did keep them because they are cute, however they do not come close support wise as the Asics Gel nimbus that are my go to's.

My first time buying the brand. Liked the style because it wasn't too gaudy. However, after I began to wear them they were too loose for my feet. They felt like a wide size instead of a medium size. Length was fine.. Arches were good. Plenty of room for the toes. Just did not hug my feet enough to give me good support.

Still deciding about these. The right foot seems to almost hit the front of the shoe so I'm not 100% sure that I'll keep them. However, overall I love the color and the left foot is fine, so I need to walk around my apt. to see if I definitely want to keep or return.

These shoes were very hard on the bottom of my forefoot. Not enough cushion for me. Liked the color and style. Needs more arch support and cushion. Had to return.

Well sized however, no support, very ‘wimpy’ thin innersoles, not good for walking any Distance. Tried different innersoles but support was still lacking. Felt like cheap sneakers But the price was not cheap. Disappointing especially for New Balance.

Way, way, way too small. I have similar shoes, same brand, different model number in this size and they fit perfectly, even too big.

Usually when I wear New Balance sneakers, they are true to size but these were so tight it was difficult to even get my feet into them. The worst part was that they "squeaked." Obviously I returned them and was so disappointed with "New Balance," I decided to try another brand.

Quite uncomfortable; little cushion and no arch support. Width felt fine and liked the overall style - just the lack of cushion and arch support was a deal-breaker for me.

This shoe makes my foot pronate inward. Pronation has never been an issue for me so it's due to the shoe construction. Shame because I like the appearance.

I liked these and they fit fine, but the bottoms were extremely slippery. Just walking around in the house on the hardwoods and the tile, I was sliding around. Thinking about being out on wet pavements doing my morning walk, well, not for me. They seemed to be nice shoes, but give them a test in the house before you commit.

I was disappointed with these sneakers! The quality not great. Too much room in the toe. They feel cheaply made. Not happy at all. I will be returning these sneakers. I got them specifically for arch support and felt that the sneaker lacked support and still had heal pain from lack of an arch.

I tried really hard with this particular shoe/model/style (New Balance 680v6). I wear a true size 7 and I have and had several styles of New Balance gym shoes and all are size 8. I read the reviews and saw they ran small but I ordered the 8 anyway and they were really small, so I ordered an 8.5. They seemed okay around the house but a tad short in the toe box. One workout on the treadmill and I had a very sore toe. Since I wore the 8.5 I will donate them. I next tried the next size up, a size 9 and in a different color. Again, did not work for me...the arch was off since I wear a 7. However, they were still too short and pushed on the great toe on both feet. My opinion is that the length of the toe box is too short in the great toe area. I went to a store and the first pair of New Balance in a size 8 fit perfectly with no issue after several workouts. No fault to Zappo's I LOVE LOVE Zappo's and shop with them always and they are my first choice, but to be fair to them I felt that I should not keep trying to find a shoe that fit in case I was the cause and I needed to try several different styles or sizes.

I love New Balance shoes, and they last a long time (few years).

Great fit, good walking shoes

Best shoe!

Love them

I wear Size 6 New Balance, on the advice of podiatrist. Dress shoes are 5.5. I've worn New Balance for years. These are cool, very comfortable and great for my daily workout.

Super light and fits/supports my higher arches very nicely! I do wish it had a regular sneaker back, a bit of a bother to put on but they’re well worth the little bit of effort

These are the only style of running shoes my 12yo will wear. She says they are lightweight, breathable and very comfortable.
