I bought these for my husband.  His old pair of version 1 shoes had completely worn out, and he loved them so much that I tried to get another pair.  I was unsuccessful....finding only version 2 and 3 of the 608's.  He went out and tried them on in a store.  The version 2 was comfortable and wide enough, but the version 3 was stiff and uncomfortable.  There were very few sizes left in the version 2, so I got online and snagged the last pair in his size from Amazon.  They fit great, and he's happy again!  Too bad they keep changing a good thing...
