I've high arches and wide feet if that makes a difference. Might have to buy online and risk returning as not a huge amount of choice in shops near me.
Personally as I said earlier I like Asics trainers - as well as the trail runners my regular running trainers are often Asics as well as I find them a good fit and reasonably priced. My sister has always complained that they don't fit her wide feet, but I've never had an issue - maybe the men's and women's shows fit different though.
Wiggle are often where I buy from as they have deals on, and they also have a run shoe finder to help you choose where you can put in terrain, arch, pronation etc. Plus they give you a free bag of Haribo with every order.
