Everyone likes different shoes as everyones feet are different. I went to a running shop, they got me on a treadmill and checked the way my feet work (they are different from each other) then they recommended 2 different pairs of running shoes to try and I found a super comfy pair (for me) they are Nike Lunar Eclipse+ 2
