^exact same thing for me.
high arches but was sold stability, fucked my foot running a hard 10k because stability shoes forced me to run on outside edge of my foot which is already very narrow thanks to my high arches, went back to a shop to buy some neutral and the salesman refused to sell me some after I reluctantly did another gait test because he wouldnt let me try any shoes on until I did. left without buying shoes and in a foul mood, bought some neutral shoes online and after taking it easy while i broke them in got on much better with them
all my shoes are neutral now contrary to the 'advice' of the shoe salesmen who 'did a course' and the only injuries i tend to get now are from over training if anything.
