Did they fit them for you at Bicycle. in Richmond, or just gave you the box and go figure it out?
When I was after a pair of shoes, I wanted to go have a shoe fit with them. I had a budget limit of ~£200 for the shoes + the £90 for the insoles. Which is, lets be honest, a lot of money in general. Unfortunately nowadays thats like entry level in cycling shoes...
If you dont end up buying shoes from them, the fit costs £50, and they only had like 3 pairs of shoes around the £200 mark. While I understand that their time is valuable, it left a sour taste that when I asked if its possible to pay for the shoe fit and use it as credit towards a bike fit and/or the insoles, they turned it down.

I have been having no end of foot trouble for the last year or so. I wish I'd done this a long time ago but the magic ticket was a pair of G8 2620s. You can get them from Bicycle. in Richmond or Sigma and they have changed the game. Literally. If anyone cares, I can write out what it's done for me. I have high arches, wide feet and tend to put all of my weight on the outside of my feet and the amount of arch support you get with the G8s seems to have alleviated my foot pain/numbness entirely.
