Like said above, go to a running shop, especially if you have a nifty one nearby that does Gait analysis so you can find out the level of support you need. That is really a huge consideration to make when choosing shoes. I'd also recommend buying quality insoles (superfeet) which will last you several pairs of shoes and will improve the quality of the shoe overall since most shoes come with shit, thin-ass insoles.
Yeah I would have to agree about the insoles.

I bought some proper ones not long ago


Unfotunately I need to cut them to size and haven't done so yet
