To add on to what Jade said above, I'd recommend heading to a running store near you if one exists (jackrabbit, Road Runner Sports, etc). It's important to know if your feet better fit a stability or neutral shoe. Lots of running shoe stores have devices that can help you figure it out. If you don't have a store nearby. There are at-home things you can do to figure it out that you can google (like bending down on one leg and looking at which way your leg goes).
But regardless, 10 miles a week is a perfect range to be in for any trainer that feels comfortable. Personally, I like Altras, but they aren't for everyone. On the flip side, I hate Hoka, and lots of people love them! Find a shoe that fits comfortably in a store and then go online and find a previous year's version for cheaper
I wouldn't use these for full distances. These are tempo shoes. I have them as interval trainers. For the full/double full, you'll want a cushioned trainer. You can go full out with the supershoes or a level down with the shoes like glycerin/ghost/adrenaline (depending on feet needs).
What do you recommend for someone who runs 10 miles/week ? I've read good things about this and Asics Novablast
For 10 miles/week, probably any daily trainer should be fine: Brooks Ghost, Hoka Clifton, Nike Pegasus or Vomero, Reebok Floatride Energy, New Balance 880, Puma Velocity Nitro, Saucony Ride. Whichever feels best to you.

So, this pair is more for street/outdoor running or treadmill running, thanks
For either, actually wouldn't be bad on the dreadmill. I put in over 3k miles a year I have only purchased one pair of these...probably due to the midsole, due to the effect that weather on the extremes have on the shoe. I seem to remember reaching for it in New England fall and late spring. I didn't mind the shoe overall. Since it doesn't have any motion control technology or whatever they would be good on the mill. I wasn't a fan of the tongue, I felt it was flimsy and caused some lacebite. I went with my normal size and i felt they were a bit tighter but not enough to size down. The more I'm typing the more I remember how much the tongue pissed me off. Someone above mentioned the rebel V3 the fuel cell midsole I don't think can be beat and I'm not a NB fan boy.
They're pretty stiff and made for training (running). If you're looking for basic gym shoes, you're overpaying. You can get a pair of $40 saucony for that function. These are made for fast pace running sessions.
What about using these for high intensity tennis on hard court?

I ran (still to this date a PR Half Marathon in em 😜) fresh out of the box as my wife gifted em to me that morning.
Obviously i couldn't wear my Vaporflys over these but they felt fine, no issues of any kind. I surely wouldn't have ran in them for a full marathon though.
Haven't run in these but I love the Hyperion Max that I got from this site a couple months ago. It breathed some much needed inspiration into a long boring marathon build.
I think these would have the same issues any running shoes would have for tennis. They're made for going forward, not side to side.
Agreed, these are more forward mobility designed than others. They provide very little horizontal stabilization. I have these and while they aren't as significant as Nike vapor models, they are not good for tennis.
I got a pair of black/orange in 9.5. They feel awesome in my wide-ish feet. I bought a pair of ASICS and they hurt my feet. These are much better. Nice and lightweight and supportive. First workout was a 35min HIIT but expect my few mile runs will feel good as well.

My personal favorite is PEBA. Brooks actually still uses EVA but they now inject it with nitrogen to give it more bounce and less weight. The new tech/foam being used in new shoes are sooo much better.
Is it really, though? I wore Hoka for five years and suddenly developed major foot pain that an old pair of New Balance all terrain trail shows has fixed. But damn if New Balance hasn't completely switched things up into the comfy sponge stuff and I think it sucks. I really want a firm shoe now with great structure and support. Less padding but a great performance insert.
I'm trying the Saucony Peregrine 13 now. Should be here any day.
