About New Balance Mens 608 V5 Casual Comfort Cross Trainer
Overall Feedback:
72% positive
67% appreciated the cushioning, although 33% raised concerns
I will replace my shoes every 3-4 months when the cushioning is shot due to my walking routine.
After the second week of use, the cushioning in my shoe was almost non-existent.
I find that the lower rubber durometer provides less cushioning and is harder.
While walking on hard surfaces, my step was hurting because the shoes did not absorb the impact well.

65% found it versatile
I can wear these shoes all day for light work or play.
65% highlighted the traction, however 35% didn't
The shoes provide a heel massage per step.
I work around a lot of oil on the floor and the slip resistance is amazing.
The shoe has been working loose for a couple of weeks and the new materials are not up to the job. The lace pulled through when I tried to take up slack.
While walking on hard surfaces, my step was hurting because the shoes didn't absorb the impact well.
66% were impressed with the support, whereas 34% struggled
I bought these shoes for my brother who has foot problems and they relieved his pain.
In the second week, the cushioning in my shoe was almost non-existent.
Despite having a rigid sole, the shoe lacks arch support.
66% liked the lightweight design, but 34% find it little heavy
I find the old 411 shoe more comfortable and lightweight than the 608 model.
69% liked the fit and comfort, but 31% didn't
These New Balance cross trainers fit perfectly and are comfortable to walk in, work out with stack weights, and use on the treadmill. The inner soles provide good support and the insides are smooth, so nothing is poking at my feet or causing discomfort.
The shoes fit perfectly and are comfortable. I have been wearing them for a 2-mile walk every day since I got them on Jan 28 with no complaints.
The shoes fit comfortably and are well made, but they are flat-footed with no arch support.
The shoes were too narrow and tight across the top of my foot.
67% appreciated the durability, while 33% encountered issues
I have been using the first pair for a very long time and the second pair for a couple of years now. I am optimistic about the durability of the shoes, but only time will tell if they are as durable as my previous pair.
For long days on feet, I find the shoes comfortable but not durable. Work shoes/boots are a better option for long term use.
