Mukhang ang wala na lang is recovery/long run shoe. Vomero Premium, magkaibang purpose pero nasa long run and max cushion category. Kung ako mas pipiliin ko Neo Vista 2, in that regard pwede din isali Megablast. As for Superblast 2, parang brick siya in slow paces above 6'30 @ 15km+ distances (possible na ako lang pero safer bet Megablast na lang, same type of foam like VN4 a-tpu)

If you find the secret let me know... My current line up is NB Rebel V4, SC Trainer V3, More V4, More Trail V3, SC Pacer V2, ASICS Superblast 2, Gel Nimbus 27, Nike Vaporfly 3, Vomero Premium... It's... a lot of money... and time. I just decided to try ASICS after using NB for a long time, I have dabbled here and there in Nike, Saucony, Hoka, but always went back to NB. Oddly enough the shoes of theirs I liked the most/logged the most miles in has always been a More. The ASICS were great at first, but the transition doesn't work great for me, didn't find that out until I had logged \~100 miles in each pair. Vaporflys have been my race shoes for a long time, don't have a ton of miles but have had a couple pairs, this pair has a few long training runs and 2 marathons on them. Just picked up the Vomero Premiums and they are pretty amazing, but pretty amazingly expensive too. Not sure I would want to haul them around for 20 miles, they weigh a ton, but we'll see. Not currently in marathon training mode, so my long runs are much shorter right now. Not sure if this is helpful, sorry for the long ramble haha

Vomero 5, you can use it for easy run, walking and lifestyle shoe.

I've run in the vomero premium but only 5kms. I thought they were mushy, very little energy return. Even when running at a slow pace I felt like i was putting in more effort than i normally would. The upper was ok however. Overall not a shoe i'd buy. I have two pairs of neo zens. The midsole is almost on par with asics megablast (it's a very good midsole). Maybe not as stable or firm as the neo vista. The uppers can be an issue if you dont like that stretchy sock type fit.

Make sure you try them on. Hokas are generally narrow. I’ve got wide feet and ended up with Nike Pegasus 5s. They do a goretex version as well which might be handy in the UK in winter.

I have the basic version and love it. It’s my go to for basically every run and I’ll definitely get the Plus when it’s on sale. Love the color btw.
