I have some Zealots that are neutral soles. I have a lingering IT band issue that I've learned to deal with. I've done every stretch under the sun and exercise to help it, but O well.

Any suggestions for running shoes for someone with high arches?

You don't think I've done that a dozen times? I was asking to see if anyone that had similar ailments had a personal experience that they had. Can't trust reviews on those sites anymore because people are literally paid to leave reviews all day now.

Just because a shoe works for me doesn't mean it will work for you!
Is that too hard to understand?

Don't expect miracles. I developed ITB issues while running in Kayanos.
Took six weeks off and started a stretching routine recommended by sports med doc who was also a runner.
Still run in Kayanos but no more ITB problems.

Barefoot running fixed all problems I had running with shoes.

I assume any good PT can give you a routine...whole body with concentration on ITB. Do ITB stretches as often as you can...min 3 times daily (before and after run for sure). The first thing you must do is stop running (weeks not days) and let your ITB get back to normal. Stretch stretch stretch and remember the tightness you are trying to relieve is in the hip area where the ITB attaches to the hip, not the the side of your knee.

Custom orthotics were the only thing to help my plantar fasciatis. I went to the Hanger Clinic and got a mold of my foot made. After about a month I was pain free

Brooks glycerin have worked for me. I'm in a pair of launches I found on clearance but the glycerins are the goat. I also like Nike Pegasus.

Just got fitted for the brooks ghost and loving them. Best shoe that's ever been on my foot! Still have tightness in the it band, but I think that's just life now.

There’s no evidence shoes supposedly designed for a specific foot type will help prevent injuries.


Form is key with running. Buy a neutral shoe with moderate cushioning and really focus on your stride and strike of your foot.

For IT issues find a gym with a "vagina machine" (abductor/adductor machine), and incorporate that into your strength training (assuming you do that) once or twice a week.

I used to have IT band issues, and then incorporated the "vagina machine" into my routine, and haven't had any issues since.
