Shoes similar to Mizuno Wave Inspire 8 or 9

A few years back, I wore the Mizuno Wave Inspire 8 and it was by far my favorite shoe because the heel had the perfect amount of cushioning and support while the forefoot was soft and flexible. I heard that the Inspire 9 was an improvement over the Inspire 8 but I have never tried that. I bought the Inspire 10 but that shoe was god awful. I have not tried any Mizuno Wave Inspire shoes after that. Anyways, I am looking for a current shoe that is similar to the Inspire 8 or 9. Can I get some help?

absolutely agree with that - the 10s were terrible, they used to cut into my uppers all the time, was always mucking about with the lacing to see if I could get any relief. Was a real shame after the 9s, which I went through multiple pairs of...

Anyway they really fixed things with the 11s - they were an amazing, lightweight-ish shoe with great cushioning. Then they screwed up again! The weight was pushed right up, and they became heavier than regular workhorse stability shoes.

Closest thing I've found now to that lightweight cushioned feel are Lunarglides.

Have you tried these?

very popular in Europe and the Common Wealth countries.
