New Balance Leadville 1210 is the model that fit me as it comes in a 2E wide fit. Don't have enough experience with them yet to recommend other than they fit better than the Brooks for me.

I also tried the Cascadia shoes and liked them but they were a regular not wide. They don't make the Cascadia in wide I needed a little wider shoe and the running store suggested a New Balance...

I trained in Asics and hiked with them. 500 + miles on the AT with my Asics Kahana's, no blisters, no problems. Sorry I don't have any experience with companies.
