I always buy New balance shoes. They're the only ones with the 4E with that I need for my wide feet. I've had a million pairs of them and I'll keep buying them.

I absolutely adore these shoes! They are very comfortable and the style and pink and white color are perfect for my gym visits. I'm so glad that my dad told me about these shoes!

I bought these shoes for my brother. He has been wearing New Balance, so I ordered 10.5 wide. He says they are "too big". Go figure...

Had to return the first pair cause they were tight on my toe. Went up a size and these feel really good with noticeable arch support.

I wanted the 608V2 type but they were all out These are okay, the price was $25 more from the manufacturer direct than it normally is from Big 5. Big 5 has been out for months.......

The shoes fit and feel good on the feet. Unfortunately they are platform shoes. I feel two inches taller wearing them. Another issue is that my toes can make contact with the ground in these shoes.

The latest version of the MX608v5 in 9-4W is not a good one for me. The thicker insole contributes to making the shoe seem much smaller than v4 and even without the insole the shoe feels more narrow than prior versions of the same shoe. The toebox also seems smaller and the material used for the upper portion of the shoe appears to be a downgrade. Too bad a later version does not always mean an improvement .

Ordered New Balance 9.5 EEEE. Shoes are closer to 9W. Box is marked 10W. Other shoes from Zappos have been fine.

Very disappointed in these V5 shoes. Not normal New Balance quality. Constructed with vinyl shiny finish upper which do not breathe like my previous purchased V3 and V4 shoes which have leather uppers. And they will not hold up as well. They will also scratch easier. They remind me more of shoes sold at Kmart or Walmart. Will not purchase more New Balance if this is their new normal.

Bought white/Team royal and this shoe was not true to size, It was not a 2e as marked and felt to be a half size short. (ordered a men's 7 and it felt like a 6.5. I compared it to the black pair I purchased in the same size and they were indeed narrower and shorter

I started out buying the 623 which were cheaply made and Junk. So I thought I would try the 608, same result. New Balance has lost it, shoes stink from all the cheap material they use. They resemble a shoe that you used to buy for 15.00 at a cheap shoe store. I will never buy another shoe from them. Thanks to Zappos for their great return policy and customer service.

I have been wearing NB 608 shoes for over 15 years. I am so disappointed in the newer version. I have an old pair of the 608v2 and the soles have held up on them so much better than my 608v5 that I purchased in February. I have heel spurs and my Podiatrist recommended these shoes to me. They don't hold up like the older versions do. Just so disappointed you pay for may more than you get in quality.

Size and fit is great, these are very comfy! I like that there is no fabric outside construction to get dirty and wear. I wish a version of this shoe was also made with red and / or blue trim .
