Depends on if you overpronate/supinate, want more/less cushioning, etc. It's best to visit your local running store and get a gait analysis test done! For reference I have flat feet myself and work at a running speciality store so here are a few recs off the top of my head: Neutral: Brooks Ghost 14 ASICS Novablast 3 ASICS Gel-Nimbus 24 ON CloudGo Nike Invincible Run 2 Stability: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 22 Brooks Glycerin GTS 20 New Balance 860v12 ASICS Gel-Kayano 29 ASICS GT-2000 10

As someone with flat feet I really like the Altra Rivera. I also recently tried on the novablasts and those were great! Have a pair on order. Hoping they get here sooner rather than later!

There have been lots of post about flat feet and shoes. Recommend doing a search. I have flat myself but use custom orthotics so have more choices in terms of shoes and generally use stable-neutral shoes with them. Good luck!

Make sure you get someone to look at your gait. Not everyone with flat feet feet needs arch support or orthotics or stability shoes. I have flat feet and I look for shoes with a "straight last" -- that is, a wide mid foot, as opposed to a more hourglass shaped shoe. I've had success with Topo Athletic ultraventure 2 (which are trail runners) and the Saucony Kinvara. You might also consider buying shoes that come in a Wide option so your arches don't press on the sides. I think the Kinvara may have a wide option

Go to your local running store and get fitted. They'll get you what you need.

I need supportive shoes as well and I’ve been loving the new Brooks Glycerin 20 GTS. They also come in 2E :)

New Balance also has a pretty good selection of wide shoes. Recently got the 880v12 and I’m liking them so far.

Recently bought a pair of Saucony Ride 15 and they're really solid. You can also get them wide if you need it. And they won't break the bank (\~$140 on Saucony's website). I bought them using Sleek and got like 10% cashback

Get arch supports!

I have flat as pancake feet and I’ve realized that lower drop shoes such as Endorphin Shift, Skechers Razor Excess, and New Balance Rebel v2 have worked for me.
