I purchased this pair of New Balance shoes, to replace a pair i purchased in January. The first pair did not fit, even though I purchased my normal size, I have purchased from new Balance for several Years. There seems to be a difference in NB 608 cross training shoes. The last one I Purchased is a MX608V3 in a 12 1/2 D size , in a grey color. These shoes fit just fine, I like the grey color, it will go with about any clothes I wear.
