If you were fitted for stability shoes and liked them, these are the ones to look at. Studies haven't found that matching shoes to how your foot rolls cuts injuries, so pick by fit and feel first.
What we look for in a stability shoe
Sold as a stability shoe. We go by the maker's own label, not by how a sole looks.
Steady, by runners' reports. Runners rate how steady each shoe feels against the others they've worn.
The fit of your other shoes. A stability shoe still has to feel right in the toes and at the heel.
