I have the Brooks Ghost 11
It's my 2nd set of Ghost shoes and they've been the best running shoes I've ever owned.

which Hoka did you try? Lots of different stack heights. Tried Altra? The Glycerin has a 32/22 stack height

I’m also an Adrenaline user. But if padding is the goal, they aren’t really comparable to Hoka imo.

Was just going to say this. It is a great shoe. I just got them, and my few runs have been nice.
