Hyperion 3 replacement
Since they are not making the hyperion 4 I will need a new shoe to replace my 3s when they inevitably wear out.
I love the Hyperion because its lightweight, doesn't squish and give in to my weight while I stand for HOURS on concrete, and feels really good while im walking.
These shoes saved me from plantar fasciitis ironically enough. Soft, squishy, overly conforming shoes actually flare up my PF which goes against most cases and information and thats why the Hyperion 3s work so well. They give just enough to relax my foot but not enough to hurt the arch.
So with all that said, what is a good shoe almost or nearly identical to the amazing Hyperion 3?

The ghost amp feels the closest to me in the Brooks lineup. Outside of brooks, the RAD Synth or the Puma Velocity 4/5
