Asics have really good support, and most models also have a gel insole that makes them feel a bit bouncy and really comfortable on concrete or other hard floors. also keep in mind that the throbbing feet after you wake up sounds like plantar fasciitis, so an insert made to take care of that might give you relief. you can talk to your doctor about it, but the inserts are only like $20, so probably cheaper than a dr. visit. and if that's the problem, you'll know it when the pain quickly goes away after a day or two.
Also, there are stretches for planar fasciitis that can help. Iceing them and/or warm foot soak can also provide some relief.
