I don't have a wide foot in sneakers, but found cycling shoes were way too narrow for my feet. I now have Sidis in the mega size and am very happy with them.

"Keep plugging along. The finish line is getting closer with every step. When you see it, you won't remember that you are hurting, that anything has gone wrong, or just how slow or fast you are.
You will just know that you are going to finish and that was what you set out to do."
-- Michael Pate, "When Big Boys Tri"
I also have a wide foot...but my disadvantage is that my feet are also small, so my choices are limited (I wear a women's 6.5).
Both my cycling shoes are Specialized (mtn and road) and both are small men's styles (boys). They are probably only a D width, but for me, that works. Neither pair were very expensive...around $129 ish, if I remember correctly, for the road shoe which was the more expensive of the two.
Northwaves are generally quite adjustable and will fit wider feet quite well.

Northwaves are also a high volume shoe with a wide heel. I recently worked with a local women's team and their Northwave shoes. On every fit, we had to work to decrease the volume of the shoe to try and achieve an accurate fit.
I wear about a size 9 or 9 1/2 depending on shoe type and brand. But I have a narrow heel and wide forefoot.
Aren't the Sidi mega shoes a men's model?
Sidi Mega wides are a men's model. Since we do guaranteed footwear fits in our store, I was able to re-mold the heal to my narrow heal.
