Any feedback on the following shoes? They seem to be the leading choices right now, based on a little research. Any user reviews would be helpful!

I'm not any help. I have an old pair of Montrails that I think are ok, a pair of Hokas that I am trying to decide if I like or not, but the pair I love the most are my New Balance Leadville 1210. I also tried on a pair of Brooks Cascadia and loved those. The New Balance shoes seemed to feel just slightly more comfortable on my feet. I prefer shoes with cushion, but not too much like Hokas.
