It depends on your leg type.

I've low arch. There's one shop at qwsc who has good specialist to tell u better what shoes suits u.

Hoka was the worst to me. It's damn narrow. I don't know what's the hype.

Asics kayano was okay but it's too bulky. Brooks was not bad but too ugly.

New balance was the best for me. 860 range.

Asics

Nike

New Balance

Adidas etc
everyone's biomechanics and feel is different, one man's meat is another man's poison.
had more than 20 pairs of running shoes from different brands (Adidas, Asics, Brooks, Hoka, Mizuno, New Balance, Nike, On, Puma, Saucony, Skechers, BMAI必迈, QIAODAN乔丹, XTEP特步, etc), prefers slightly firmer but bouncy TPEE based midsoles used by Adidas and QIAODAN乔丹. Some others will prefer softer ones from PEBA based.
And within different brands also have different formulation to achieve different objectives.
No point papertalk here. Go read up and try yourself to find out.

Good fit and stability is more important. Go SAF emart buy. All the rest is just chop carrot only

i tried the xtep in JB... forgot which shop
eh not bad wor
i feel better than nike adidas
xtep indeed is good. most western biased peeps will denounce Chinese brands without a second thought. Besides xtep, there are other Chinese brands that are on par with the best in the International brands now, eg. Anta has worked with Bekele to produce a sub 180g C202 G9 supershoe, BMAI必迈 has a sub170g 驚碳3.0 Turbo supershoe priced at RMB699.

For moi, timberland or hush puppies.

Frank Williams CMI... wore once, spoil immediately

BATA CMI, really lives up to the acronym we all know.

CAT is good but can't find any designs I like now. Had one pair before, really good and nice.

Anything more expensive than timberland when it's on sale, I can't afford now.
