How Can I Alleviate Sore And Stiff Ankles Even After Trying Different Kinds Of Shoes?

I seem to have weak ankles. When wearing shoes of any kind, by the end of the day my ankles are very weak and sore. I have tried changing into different shoes each day from ankle boots, knee high boots, flat slip on shoes, trainers. Once rested trying to get back up ankles are sore and stiff, How can I alleviate this situation. After I have walked over a mile, this is when it is at worst

Try streching your calf muscle and leaning forwards while walking, if pain improves then i suggest you check for flatfoot and check your overall posture as it seems your weight is concentrated on. your heel not your ball
