It's a new size for me but so far the size feels good; have to wear them a little longer to really evaluate. The last pair I ordered had plastic thread on the tongue & I had to remove the NB label to make them wearable. Thankfully, the 2 pairs I just purchased no longer have that.

Bought these for my bf who is a size 17 and it can be extremely difficult to find shoes for him, plus he’s picky. He liked the style but they run very large. Returning for a size 16.

I use this product everyday walking my black Labrador, it is comfortable and very supportive. I am a long-time consumer with New Balance, shoe lines have changed but New Balance quality remains the same.

Have two other 608v5 in different colors. They fit my feet the best with room at my toes. True to size.

Only worn once, so needs test of time. Comfortable fit for my 4E wide feet lightweight shoe for intended purpose neighborhood walks mostly on paved surfaces. Only negative is undersize slits in tread pattern get stuck with tiny gravel & packed in dirt, would have preferred wider gaps between raised treads.

They are super comfortable shoes. The size seemed a little big to me, but I'd much rather have more room than less!

Nice shoe, almost dressy. The NB line needs size 13.5 for those of us in between sizes.

They fit perfectly and seem rugged enough for 5 mile daily walks and are a good color. No complaints but one: can do without the gaudy white surrounding the trademark logo "N" – too flashy and tacky.

They fit well. My normal size varies between 10 3E and 10.5 3E. These fit at 10.5 4E. They don't have much cushion, but are adequate. I'll see how they hold up since they will be my everyday shoes out here in the woods.

My feet are very sensitive. But after a few short length walks they seem to be breaking in ok.

I really wanted to like these - perfect throw-back style and overall comfortable - the length was just too short and my feet rolled inward a bit - not enough arch support for my narrow foot. Seems like a well-built, supportive sneaker for kicking around town, but just not the right fit.

These are the only style and brand of shoe, I wear everyday. The 600 series gives me the correct fit to my feet.

I use this product almost daily to walk and exercise. I like the fact you have shorten the laces to the proper length but still don't like the pull tabs that have a habit of folding in behind your heel. I also feel you have changed the leather from soft leather to a stiffer leather.

Wear them every day. Very comfortable, no slipping on the heel. Feel like I could walk for hours which I actually do on my job. Live my NB shoes. Will be ordering again !

I used to always wear the 608 style in a wide width. I haven't been able to find it until now; the closest I came was the 624 style, which was pretty close if not the same. I recently purchased the 608 as they"appeared' in my search. They would be perfect except the top gaps and bends when I walk (between the toe and the start of the laces). I do not think regular width will correct the problem so I am returning and reordering the 624 style. Other than that they are perfect and for nicely and comfortably.

Size and width fine. I have narrow feet however these fit well. I do recommend replacing the insoles with a better substitute especially with good arch support.

These are a little stiffer than they used to be. Like they need to be worn in. They are also narrow. I normally wear a 6.5 med but would need a wide in these. They do have great support though.

Had to buy shorter shoestrings and replace what the factory sent. Other than that, nice shoes for walking.

I really like the style and design of this shoe. It is very comfortable. However, it feels a bit shorter than my other NB shoe that is the same size (8 2A). So glad I can get the narrow size. My order was processed and shipped quickly.

However my right foot has always felt some discomfort on the right side of my ankle, so I am unable to lace the sneaker up to and including the top most eyelets. This has been the case over many years, no matter which sneaker brand I purchase. Regardless, I love my New Balance sneakers!
