I am asking this especially to those of you who have trouble with foot pain.
Funny, I teste at least a dozen shoes and Bontrager made the only pair I liked. Ballista Knit fwiw, and I added professional insoles.
My suggestion would be to try as many as you can. Unlike saddles, you can go to store and put on the shoes. Go for a pair that is if anything a little too large, like me you can always add professional insoles that will have a bigger volume than the flimsy default ones. Also, always better to be too big than too narrow.
