860v10

Before this year I was running in a stability show New Balancea 860 v10. Since those have died and I don't actually need a stability shoe I've tried: * Hoka Mach 6 (keeping for now) * Adidas EvoSL (returned- too unstable) * Asics Novablast 5 (returned- too plush) * New Balance Rebel v5 (returned-less stable than the Mach 6) * Asics Magic Speed (untested as of today) * Adidas Boston 13 (testing) * Brooks Hyperion Max 3 (untested as of today) * Saucony Endorphin Speed (untested as of today) Shoe "science" has changed since the early 2000s. It looks like more shoe are leaning towards having some degree of stack if only to provide a cushion for your body's longevity. Don't discount the New Balances based on your experience from 2007, they've changed up their game too. Your best bet is to either look up "best daily trainers" on youtube to see what shoetubers are recommending, or try [runrepeat](https://runrepeat.com/catalog/running-shoes) and narrow it down to a few choices by filtering what you think you need. Then go into the store try them on and see if your body likes the geometry. Then buy and try (make sure you know exactly what the return window and policy is).

I can relate. Use 860 4E's for longer runs, and Prime X2 for tempo runs, surprisingly they have been amazing!

I wear Brooks Ghost extra wide. They're the only ones my wide feet tolerate. I tried New Balance 860 in extra wide but found they were too cushioned for my feet.

People can recommend shoes, but it might just be more waste of money. Shoes are not cheap. Best bet is go to a running shoe store and spend 20 minutes trying on shoes they recommend. I would do that and buy the pair there and then go online and find the previous year's model and buy that at a bigger discount. Stability with cushion would be something like Brooks Adrenaline or Glycerin or New Balance 860 or ASICS Gel-Kayano or Saucony Guide. If you are having foot pain custom insoles from a foot doctor would be the best bet. I had to do that after fracturing my foot twice.

I've been wearing New Balance 860 for at least 10 years. I usually have at least 50 miles on them for race rehearsal (about a month in advance of a race).

Start with stability shoes since you have got knock knees they help control pronation. Check out ASICS Gel-Kayano, New Balance 860, or Brooks Adrenaline (all offer wide sizes and solid support). HOKA Arahi is great if you want max cushioning without losing stability. Try them on in-store late afternoon (feet swell), walk a bit and consider a firm orthotic if you need extra correction. Worth paying a bit more for fit it saves your knees and lasts longer.

If Adrenaline GTS works for you, I’d look at New Balance 860, Saucony Guide, Mizuno Wave Inspire, or Hoka Arahi as similar “daily stability” shoes that are often cheaper (especially last year’s model on sale). Also worth noting: overpronation by itself isn’t always a problem unless you’re getting pain so prioritize comfort + stable feel over “maximum correction.” I pronate a lot too… (Disclosure: I built a free shoe-compare / finder tool happy to share if you want.)
