ive been involved in running since i was young. ive also had a lot of problems with my feet and i had problems as a teenager when i was running on an almost daily basis. i had problem with pronation of my feet (inward) which in effect caused a collapsed arch (different to a flat foot).
i had my podiatrist prescribe and manufacture for me orthotics that i insert in all my shoes. nowadays i dont realise they are there..
anyways..back on the topic.. ive had nikes since i was a kid..but nearly all nikes have a narrow throat at the arch. i find that it gives you less support, especially if you have a problematic gait or excessive pronation. i also find that nikes are designed for 'the perfect foot' which not many people have.
for problematic feet, id recommend Asics. They are by far the best shoes ive had. ive been wearing them for over 10 years and i'd swear by them. then nearly all have wide arches and the most support that ive had.
ive had new balance cross trainers, and although they are good, anything over 10km runs and ill start getting blisters.
the_jazz would be someone you could ask. hes been running for many years, so he'll definately have an opinion on what shoes he thinks is best.
