Does anyone find that a type of shoe helps your foot neuropathy?

Since my neuropathy worsened the pain has been replaced with numbness, balance & other complications. My favorite shoes are New Balance 990 & the 15??. Can't remember if the last two numbers.
I recently bought a pair of Hokas because a nurse recommend them and quite a few people here recommend them also.
They say they have a wider soul giving better stability.
But when I walked in them I was anything but stable. Had I not been holding on to chairs and shoe racks I'm sure I would've fallen. Because of all the recommendations, I thought I'll keep them and try to get used to them.
I read a review from someone who said it took him months to break in the Hoka’s. But I still feel much safer and more stable in my new balance, SAS & Mephisto’s.

Hoka Clifton 9. I have 3 pairs. Feel more secure and balanced. I had the imbalance first, then the numbness set in. I was wearing Sketchers and Altras, for their wider toe bed and softness on my slightly achy feet. But, when balance became more pronounced, I switched to Hoka. I read Clifton 9 or Bondi 9. Tried them on at a store. I have had PT the last 4 weeks and it has helped so much with balance and using a cane properly.
