Best would be to get a podiatrist’s opinion first as to orthotic devices to use in general with shoes and/or sneakers. Alternatively using a sport shoe store that provides fitting services would help. It is not necessarily a brand that will do it, but the type of shoe and how it fits for you.

an arch support would be helpful but since the majority of the population has a low arch, there are not many that work for a high arch. often need to do a custom orthotic to get adequate support. try some OTC supports first and if they don't help, bring those and your shoes to your podiatrist for a consult
