So, recently joined the Army, which has come with a looooot of running, so I purchased my first pair of real running shoes, the Novablast 5's, and shortly after a pair of megablasts. The novablasts felt fantastic, and the megablasts even a league above those. I have to say I do prefer the feel of the megablasts over the nova's (for $80 more I better) but that probably means i like a bit more of a firmer, responsive ride. I've been considering what to try next that might give me a similar feel, looking at the Superblast 3's and Magic Speed 5 for different runs, sticking with Asics, what might other brands have to offer that would be similar? Heard a lot about the Vomero plus's, or Puma Deviate Nitro 4 for a plated option. The biggest issue is my feet are pretty wide, but not in the toe box, my mid foot is pretty wide. The megablasts are a bit snug in the middle, but i think they'll break in. Traditionally a lot of Puma's and Adidas have felt pretty narrow to me, even going up a half size. Asics so far fit pretty well
Also looking at a max cushion recovery option, Vomero premium, Puma magmax 2, and Gel nimbus 28's, thoughts on those or others?
