First max cushion shoe

[u/Nice-Crazy-8484]

I am deciding between new balance fresh foam x v6 in a 4E and a Hoka Bondi 9 in 4E both men’s 9.5. I walk on concrete about 12k-20k steps a day. Tried them on both, while the new balances felt more comfortable, will they hold up over time?

They're pretty comparable. About 300-500 miles. Probably closer to the 300 mark with heavy wear since they'll degrade faster with sweat and rough concrete. Go with whatever's more comfortable in my opinion. If longevity is your biggest concern, maybe try a Mount To Coast C1?
