First of all you should treat the cause of your pain.
You can take ultrasound therapy in physiotherapy for ten days followed by Ankle and foot strengthening and stretching exercises.
You can go for Dr Schols footwear.

Some ASICS or nimbus series come with inbuilt gel arch support.
But you need to get it assessed with a physiotherapist or podiatrist before you try it. There can be other components of hip and pelvic mobility, foot stiffness etc that needs to be addressed to have a reasonable resolution.
