Does anyone know what LBSs have a large selection of shoes in stock in the southern area?

I'm in Southampton and I've just been to Hargroves and Cycle World to try Specialized and some Shimano road shoes, but I'm still having problems finding comfortable ones.

I have very wide feet and usually wear shoes that are 2 sizes too big, just so that I can get the correct width. I currently wear a pair of Shimano MT40's (size 44, by rights I should be a 41) but after about 15 miles even they get uncomfortable.

After reading a previous thread I thought the Spesh shoes might be good, but the (helpful) chap in Hargroves suggested I try the wide Shimano shoes (available in their top of the range shoes).

Went to Cycle World, but they didn't have many of the Shimano range - what they did have were a pretty poor fit, which was very disappointing as the R076's looked really good.

Prendas Ciclisimo in Poole might be an option:

Prendas don't seem to have any shoes on the website.

I take it no-one in the South has a good stock of shoes to try?
