Recommend shoes/runners for walking

I walk for an hour each day and my current Nike runners are quite battered and the right one seems to have collapsed a bit on the inside. So, time for a new pair. I'm a bit overwhelmed at the choice available! A couple of years ago I got plantar facilitis and it was agony so I'd like something with good support. I have a different pair of Nike that I wear just casually and I did a long walk in them once but they are definitely not suitable for a 'proper' walk. I was looking online at Skechers arch fit but although the blurb makes them sound brilliant, the reviews all seem to be just for casual wear. I don't have many actual shops nearby so would like to order online if possible, or if not then at least I'd like to have narrowed down what I want to look for if I do have to go to an actual shop. Would love to hear peoples' recommendations please. Budget up to £150 max

I've just bought a pair of New Balance trail trainers for £30 (M&M direct) and they're great. They have excellent support inside and because they're trail trainers the sole is robust over uneven surfaces. Definitely recommend them.

On Cloud. No tie laces. So comfy and easy off/on. Just bought my 3rd pair.
