Over pronation, shin splints & touching knees

So I'm currently training for a 90 mintute half marathon. My PB from last month was 1:31:40, so Im close.

The only problem I have is how sore my legs have been getting recently. I thought the shin splints were from the sudden increase of intensity but, now, having seen photos from my last run, I noticed how close my knees are and so I started researching.

I have had run analysis done by a local run shop where they told me that I over pronate. I purchased New Balance Fresh Foam 860v14 on their recommendation for support.

I also have collapsed arches.

I suspect my pain is from my over pronation and my questions are:

Is there shoes that offer more support?

Is it worth trying insoles?

Is there anything else I can do?
